Finding Home in the Landscape: A Personal and Research Journey Through Colombia

While researching my Capstone project in my mother’s homeland of Quindío, Colombia, I took full advantage of my “American Tourist” privilege to immerse myself in the evolving landscape of ecological tourism. I wanted to go beyond the surface-level experiences often marketed to visitors and instead understand how tourism interacts with the environment, the economy, and the daily lives of locals. Leading up to my hikes, I focused on the cultivation of coffee, not just as a globally renowned export but as a crop deeply intertwined with Colombia’s land, culture, and economy. Coffee is more than just a beverage here; it is a livelihood, a legacy, and in many ways, a symbol of both resilience and exploitation.

For most of my life, I had visited this region primarily on holiday breaks, spending time with extended family and enjoying the familiar warmth of my mother’s roots. But this past winter, something shifted. For the first time, I truly admired the ever-growing verdant landscapes in a way I never had before. I wasn’t just an occasional visitor, I was an observer, a researcher, and someone eager to understand the land beyond nostalgia.

Deep in the heart of Quindío, my family and I set off into the ‘Forest of the Palms’, embarking on a four-hour hike that would take us through dense cloud forests and across a waterfall. The towering wax palms, Colombia’s national tree, loomed over us, their impossibly slender trunks stretching toward the sky. With each step, I became more aware of how the land, the people, and the ecosystems were all intricately connected. This journey wasn’t just about research; it was about rediscovering a place that had always been a part of me but that I was only now beginning to truly see.

I tried to avoid using my iPhone’s camera and opted for using a cheap digital camera, allowing me to fully immerse myself in the hike without modern technology altering the natural contrast of the landscape. While the convenience of an iPhone was tempting, and yes, I did use it at times, I reserved the most meaningful moments for my digital camera. As you'll see throughout this blog, this choice made those memories even more special, highlighting the natural shadows and contours seen throughout my journey.

Throughout the hike, our tour guide and family friend, Camilo Echeverri García, shared fascinating insights about the region’s diverse ecosystem. The forest is home to an incredible variety of plant life, each playing a crucial role in maintaining the delicate balance of this environment. Some of the most important players include the towering Quindío Wax Palms, Quindío’s national tree, which provides shelter and sustenance to many animals, and the resilient Guadua, a unique species of bamboo known for its remarkable height and strength. Both of these plants create essential habitats, offering shade and protection for countless species that thrive in the warm, humid climate.

Yet, amidst these giants, one tree in particular stood out to me—the Cecropia peltata, also known as the trumpet tree. Its broad, palmate leaves shimmered in the filtered sunlight, but what truly caught my attention was the delicate white powder film on the underside of its leaves. Camilo explained that this powder is a natural defense mechanism, deterring herbivores and aiding the tree’s survival. However, there was something almost ethereal about watching it drift down, an ephemeral reminder of the intricate, unseen interactions that sustain this thriving ecosystem.

The Cost of Tourism: An Ecologist’s Perspective on Environmental Impact in Colombia

“Forest of the Palms” in Salento by Breanna Lakatos, Quindio, Colombia, 2025.

“En particular en zonas de naturaleza, está entrando mucha más gente de lo que soporta el ecosistema y eso se vive con afectaciones en el comportamiento de la fauna.”

My conversation with Camilo Echeverri Garcia, a local tour guide and ecological researcher, shed light on the growing environmental challenges caused by tourism in Colombia’s natural areas. As he described, the influx of visitors, many of whom are unaware of their impact, has pushed ecosystems beyond their limits. Pollution, habitat destruction, and overcrowding are becoming increasingly evident, placing immense strain on delicate environments that were never meant to sustain such high levels of human activity.

Additionally, the small neighboring towns lack the space and infrastructure to accommodate the growing number of tourists, especially during peak travel seasons when many Colombians from other regions also visit for holiday breaks. This surge in visitors often overwhelms local communities, leaving them to deal with the negative consequences while large, profit-driven companies capitalize on the demand. Rather than prioritizing sustainability and respect for the land, many of these businesses focus on developing luxury hotels and villas designed to cater to an "Instagram-worthy" experience, further disconnecting tourism from the environment it depends on. As a result, local communities bear the brunt of these unchecked developments, while the true essence of the land, its culture, ecology, and history, is often overshadowed by commercialization.

One of the most concerning effects is the disruption of wildlife behavior. Camilo explained how animals, once accustomed to a balanced ecosystem, are now being forced to adapt to the overwhelming presence of humans. Predators that traditionally hunted in more remote areas are being driven closer to farms, leading to attacks on livestock such as chickens and calves. The shift in wildlife patterns is not just an isolated issue; it creates a ripple effect, destabilizing entire food chains and making it harder for local farmers to protect their livelihoods.

A significant part of the problem, according to Camilo, is the lack of coordination among local authorities to regulate tourism’s environmental footprint. Despite the visible consequences, there have been minimal efforts to address these concerns through education or policy changes. He emphasized that without structured environmental education programs in schools and local communities, both residents and tourists will continue to unknowingly contribute to the degradation of these natural spaces. Raising awareness is crucial, as many visitors do not realize the long-term harm caused by their activities, whether it’s littering, noise pollution, or even excessive foot traffic in fragile ecosystems.

Beyond direct human interference, the excessive presence of visitors and unchecked pollution have begun to alter natural habitats in ways that extend beyond immediate visibility. Wildlife migration patterns have shifted, forcing some species to move away from their native environments in search of quieter, less disturbed areas. This movement disrupts local biodiversity, creating unexpected conflicts between species and ultimately leading to an imbalance that threatens the stability of the entire ecosystem.

“El turismo cómo afecta el ambiente? Si no tenemos cómo soportar el impacto ambiental que genera el turismo, pues se van a ver afectados por la contaminación. Segundo, pues es demasiada gente para que el ecosistema soporte en caminar, el ruido y eso los animales, terminan yéndose de él, de la zona, empezamos a tener ya conflictos depredadores”

To control and regulate the impact of tourism on the environment, the following measures can be implemented:

Tourism Regulation and Control

Limit the number of daily visitors in natural areas.

Establish restricted access seasons to allow ecosystem recovery.

Require permits for access to protected and fragile zones.

Environmental Education and Awareness

Implement educational programs in schools and local communities to emphasize the importance of conservation.

Create awareness campaigns for tourists on eco-friendly practices.

Install informational signage in tourist areas about environmental impact and ways to reduce it.

Waste and Pollution Management

Establish strict waste management and recycling regulations in tourist areas.

Promote the use of biodegradable products and reduce single-use plastics.

Camilo’s insights underscored the urgent need for action, whether through stricter tourism regulations, conservation initiatives, or improved waste management. Without intervention, the very landscapes that attract visitors in the first place could become irreversibly damaged, depriving both locals and future generations of the rich biodiversity that defines Colombia’s natural heritage.

Facing Uncertainty: The Impact of Climate Change on Small Farmers in Colombia

The emphasis on coffee exports has led to significant agricultural shifts, particularly through the Colombian Coffee Federation’s push for monoculture farming. While this approach maximized production, it came at the cost of biodiversity, depleting soil nutrients and making crops more susceptible to pests and disease. Coffee plants thrive when grown in diverse, shaded ecosystems, yet large-scale plantations often clear vast areas of land, replacing forests with coffee shrubs that require chemical fertilizers and pesticides to sustain high yields. Beyond its environmental toll, monoculture farming also threatens local food security, as many farmers traditionally relied on polyculture farming to sustain a diverse range of crops. When vast amounts of land are dedicated solely to coffee production, it becomes unsustainable to cultivate other essential plants that contribute to the community’s food supply, increasing dependence on imported food and disrupting traditional agricultural practices.

The shift to industrial-scale coffee farming has also intensified socio-political struggles in Colombia. Agricultural activists in the country and across Latin America have faced severe repercussions for advocating against corporate exploitation and environmental degradation. Colombia is one of the most dangerous countries in the world for geo-activists. In 2023, it recorded the highest number of activist murders globally, with 79 individuals killed. The risks faced by these activists stem from a combination of factors, including corrupt government institutions, weak judicial systems, and limited access to education, which leave communities vulnerable to manipulation and violence.

Many of the victims of these attacks are indigenous activists who have long fought to protect their ancestral lands from deforestation, mining, and mass agricultural projects. These individuals often find themselves at odds with powerful corporate entities, right-wing paramilitary groups, and drug cartels, all of whom have vested interests in controlling Colombia’s fertile land. In some cases, activists are falsely labeled as insurgents or threats to national stability, further justifying their persecution. The ongoing war for land in Colombia is not just a political battle but a fight for cultural survival, environmental preservation, and the rights of rural communities to maintain their traditional ways of life.

Despite these challenges, grassroots movements and international organizations continue to push for stronger protections for environmental defenders. The call for sustainable coffee farming is not just about preserving the land but also about ensuring that those who cultivate it can do so without fear of violence or displacement. As global consumers, understanding the human cost behind coffee production is essential in supporting ethical trade policies and sustainable farming practices that protect both the environment and the people who depend on it.

Balancing Tradition and Sustainability: The Shift from Monoculture to Polyculture in Colombian Coffee Farming

Colombia is renowned for its distinctive coffee, crafted exclusively from 100% Arabica beans. The region’s climate and nutrient-rich volcanic soil create the bold yet smooth flavors cherished by coffee drinkers worldwide. In 2023, the U.S. imported $1.38 billion worth of Colombian coffee, making it the country's second-largest import from Colombia after crude petroleum, which totaled $4.65 billion. However, the industry faces growing political challenges, including tariff threats from Donald Trump, which fail to acknowledge the vital role Colombian coffee plays in American consumption. Recognizing the historical, economic, and environmental complexities of its production is essential to fostering a more ethical and sustainable coffee industry.

For as long as I can remember, “Tinto” meant coffee, but it wasn't until the last few years that I learned Tinto is a specific style of coffee enjoyed by Colombian consumers. It is typically more affordable, served in small cups, and sweetened with native sugarcane, offering a simple yet rich experience for everyday drinkers. This stands in contrast to “Café,” a mid-day beverage consisting of a small cup of coffee blended with mostly milk.

The presence of Tinto in Colombian culture is deeply intertwined with the nation’s coffee industry and its colonial past. While Colombia is recognized for exporting some of the finest Arabica beans, the highest-quality beans are sent abroad as part of stringent quality control measures set by the Colombian Coffee Federation. As a result, the coffee that remains in the country for local consumption is often of lower grade, contributing to the widespread availability of Tinto. This practice reflects a long-standing system in which local farmers prioritize global markets over domestic consumers, perpetuating economic disparities in the industry.

From a recent coffee tour, I gained insight into the intricate balance required to cultivate high-quality coffee while preserving ecological stability. Many Colombian farmers and agricultural activists are advocating for a return to more sustainable farming practices, emphasizing shade-grown coffee, crop diversification, and organic methods to restore soil health and protect biodiversity. As Colombia’s coffee industry continues to navigate economic and political pressures, it is crucial to support policies and practices that prioritize both sustainability and fair compensation for farmers. Understanding the complex history of Colombian coffee, from its colonial legacy to modern-day trade policies, allows consumers to make more informed choices that contribute to a more ethical and resilient industry.

In conclusion, my journey through Quindío, Colombia, has been an eye-opening exploration into the complex intersection of tourism, agriculture, and environmental sustainability. From the lush landscapes that first captured my attention to the nuanced challenges faced by local communities, it has become clear that the future of Colombia’s natural heritage rests on our collective ability to balance tradition with progress. The tourism boom, while offering economic opportunities, has placed immense pressure on ecosystems and local livelihoods, highlighting the urgent need for sustainable practices and responsible travel. Similarly, the challenges faced by coffee farmers, struggling between maintaining a delicate balance of ecological integrity and meeting global demand, further illustrate the broader socio-economic and environmental struggles Colombia is facing.

As global citizens, we must recognize the human and environmental costs tied to the goods and experiences we consume. Through this research, I have come to appreciate the importance of supporting sustainable coffee production, fostering eco-tourism initiatives that prioritize conservation, and advocating for policies that protect both people and nature. What I’ve learned from this personal and academic journey is that home is not just a place, but a delicate relationship between land, culture, and the people who call it their own. By embracing a more conscious approach to how we interact with the world, we can ensure that the landscapes of Quindío—and those like it—remain vibrant and resilient for generations to come.

How Farmers Benefit from Partnering with Top Coffee Exporters in Ethiopia

Ethiopia, the birthplace of Arabica coffee, is known for producing some of the finest beans in the world. While its reputation in global coffee markets continues to grow, much of the success is driven by strong collaborations between smallholder farmers and the top coffee exporters in Ethiopia. These partnerships are more than just commercial arrangements—they offer a lifeline to rural communities, improve farming practices, and help ensure long-term sustainability.

Access to International Markets For most coffee farmers in Ethiopia, accessing international markets independently can be a complex and expensive process. By working with the top coffee exporters in Ethiopia, farmers gain direct access to global buyers, premium markets, and higher price points. Exporters handle the logistics, marketing, and compliance issues that individual farmers would otherwise struggle with.

Better Pricing and Stable Income One of the most significant advantages for farmers is price stability. Top exporters often provide better pricing compared to local traders or middlemen, especially when the beans meet high-quality standards. Many exporters use transparent pricing models based on international benchmarks, helping farmers understand how their coffee is valued globally.

Training and Technical Support Leading exporters don’t just buy coffee—they invest in quality. They frequently offer training sessions and workshops on sustainable farming practices, pest control, soil health, and post-harvest processing. These sessions enable farmers to produce higher-quality beans that fetch better prices. This technical support is crucial in empowering farmers to become more efficient and competitive in the marketplace.

Improved Infrastructure and Resources Working with large exporters can lead to better access to equipment, seeds, fertilizers, and even infrastructure such as washing stations or storage units. Exporters often reinvest in the farming communities to ensure a consistent and quality supply chain. This, in turn, enhances productivity and reduces post-harvest losses for farmers.

Sustainability and Certifications Top coffee exporters in Ethiopia often require certifications such as Fair Trade, Organic, or Rainforest Alliance. While this might initially seem demanding, these certifications come with long-term benefits for farmers, including better pricing and access to conscious buyers. Exporters help farmers navigate these certifications, making them more competitive on the global stage.

Stronger Community Development Many of Ethiopia’s leading exporters also support community development programs in education, healthcare, and clean water. These efforts contribute to the overall well-being of farming families and strengthen trust between farmers and exporters. In many cases, long-term partnerships develop, benefiting both parties over time.

Conclusion The relationship between farmers and the top coffee exporters in Ethiopia is a key driver of success for the entire industry. It’s a win-win collaboration where farmers gain knowledge, resources, and access to premium markets, while exporters ensure a consistent supply of high-quality beans. For Ethiopia’s coffee farmers, these partnerships are not just beneficial—they are transformational.

Coffee Cultivation: A Lever for Economic Growth and Sustainable Development in West Africa

West Africa, rich in deeply rooted agricultural traditions, remains a marginal player in the global coffee market. However, this situation does not reflect the region's immense potential. By focusing on coffee cultivation, particularly in areas suitable for Robusta and Arabica varieties, West African farmers and agricultural cooperatives can access lucrative export markets, enhance their economic resilience, and improve community living conditions. As global demand for coffee continues to rise, West Africa has the opportunity to establish itself as a key player in this industry.

The Potential of Coffee in West Africa

While East Africa and Latin America are often highlighted as leaders in coffee production, West Africa, particularly countries like Côte d'Ivoire, Guinea, Sierra Leone, Liberia, and Togo, has the necessary foundations to significantly increase its coffee production. Côte d'Ivoire, with an annual production of 1 to 2 million bags, is already a regional leader. Yet, the country and its neighbors have much more to offer. Currently, West Africa produces around 2 to 3 million bags per year, a tiny fraction of global production. This represents a tremendous opportunity for the region.

Success Stories in Africa

Other regions on the continent provide inspiring examples of coffee projects that have transformed local economies and positioned their products on the global stage.

Ethiopia: The Birthplace of Coffee

Ethiopia, often considered the birthplace of coffee, has capitalized on its unique varieties, particularly Arabica. Ethiopian coffee, prized for its distinct flavors, is highly sought after in international markets. Agricultural cooperatives have played a crucial role in maintaining the quality and heritage of Ethiopian coffee while ensuring fair trade practices.

A standout example is the Sidama Coffee Farmers Cooperative Union, representing over 85,000 farmers. By pooling resources and focusing on quality control, this cooperative has secured premium prices for its coffee on the global market, enabling farmers to reinvest in their communities, including building schools, health centers, and infrastructure.

Rwanda: Rebirth Through Coffee

Rwanda offers an inspiring example of economic rebirth through coffee. After the 1994 genocide, the country invested in coffee to rebuild its economy. Through strategic investments in quality improvement and cooperative development, Rwanda now produces some of the world's finest Arabica coffees.

The success of the Dukunde Kawa cooperative is a testament to this. By training farmers in sustainable practices and establishing direct relationships with international buyers, this cooperative has enabled producers, particularly women, to achieve financial independence and improve their living conditions.

Uganda: Capitalizing on Robusta

Uganda, another coffee giant in East Africa, has primarily focused on Robusta coffee. The Ugandan coffee sector, supported by the government and private sector, has increased production and improved quality. A notable initiative is the Kawacom Sipi Falls project, which has helped small farmers in the Mount Elgon region adopt organic farming. This has significantly increased their incomes and ensured environmental preservation.

Opportunities for West Africa

West Africa can draw inspiration from these successes by adopting strategies tailored to its realities. Côte d'Ivoire, with its experience in Robusta, demonstrates that investments in quality, cooperatives, and sustainable agricultural practices can enhance competitiveness in the global market.

In high-altitude regions like Guinea and Sierra Leone, suitable for Arabica cultivation, there is an opportunity for diversification. By leveraging these unique terroirs and developing robust value chains with processing infrastructure, the region could not only increase its revenues but also retain more added value locally.

A promising local example is the COOP-CA Kénédougou in Côte d'Ivoire. Through training and access to modern equipment, this cooperative has improved coffee quality and established partnerships with international buyers, ensuring stable incomes for its members.

Conclusion

West Africa can become a major player in the global coffee industry. By leveraging its potential for Robusta and Arabica cultivation and drawing inspiration from successful initiatives elsewhere in Africa, the region can unlock significant economic opportunities. Strategic investments in quality, cooperatives, and sustainability can enable West African producers to increase their global market share while transforming their communities.

The time has come for farmers and cooperatives in the region to seize this opportunity, innovate, and make their mark on the international stage. Together, let us sow the seeds of prosperity, one coffee bean at a time.
