Finca don Pancho is a small piece of land located in Las Capucas area, near to the Pachapa village. Two hectares of land shaded by legumes and plane trees, loved and cared personally since more than twenty years by the capataz don Francisco Villeda Panchito “don Pancho”: his great humanity made him an example for all the people he meets. Despite an accident he had when he was a soldier when he lost his left arm in a firefight, the hard work of don Pancho and family is the demonstration that determination, humility and a strong family unit are the keys to success against all odds.
