The whole property is surrounded by a fence with an electronic gate at the entrance.
One of the delightful features is the number of springs scattered throughout Marcia’s Paradise.
There are also three streams
We constructed a small waterfall on the left as you enter the property

And a larger one on the right. Some of the children from the nearby village asked if they could swim in the pond we created for this waterfall.
Marcia’s Paradise is actually a working coffee plantation. Here we see the ripe coffee being harvested.
Part of the plantation is now being used to grow cilantro for the international market.
Here the cut cilantro is made ready for market.
This photo taken from the mountains on the other side of the valley shows the strange shaped mountain "Chitaria" from which the ancient Indians worshipped the moon and stars. Our plantation is directly below it.
Here we see Marcia’s Paradise from the air.
Here’s another arial shot.
This picture was taken from the road above our plantation.
