Overview
☕🍫 An authentic taste of Costa Rica – from bean to cup and pod to bite
Step into the heart of La Fortuna’s farming traditions with a visit to North Fields Coffee, a charming family-run farm located near Arenal Volcano. This immersive experience invites you to discover the magical process behind Costa Rica’s most beloved flavors: coffee and chocolate.
🌱 The journey begins at the nursery, where you'll learn how coffee and cacao are grown using sustainable, organic farming practices. As you walk through the plantation, your guide will walk you through each stage—from planting, harvesting, and fermenting to drying and roasting.
But this isn’t just a show-and-tell tour—you’ll get your hands involved! Grind beans, prepare fresh coffee, and make your own chocolate. You’ll even explore sugarcane plantations and meet some friendly farm animals along the way 🐓🐐.
And yes—there’s tasting time! Indulge in freshly brewed coffee, handmade chocolate, and a bit of natural sugarcane, all while enjoying the farm's peaceful surroundings.
