What you need to know...
Huayopata, Cusco – Peru In the green valley of La Convencion, in the jungle edge of Cusco, lies Julia's chakra: a space where cacao and coffee grow among mountains, mist, and fruit trees. Alongside her family, Julia cultivates with respect for the land and the agricultural traditions she has inherited, maintaining a balance between farm work and family life. On her farm, they produce a small amount of cacao and coffee mainly for personal consumption, with some sold locally. Additionally, the chakra is full of other foods that are part of daily life: avocado, cassava, banana, coffee, fresh eggs, and other products that visitors can enjoy during their stay. Visiting Julia's chakra is an experience of connection with rural life. Visitors can spend the night with her family, share meals, and participate in farm activities. During the cacao and coffee tour, visitors learn hands-on how these wonderful fruits are harvested and processed, understanding the value and effort behind each bean.
The farm is located just an hour and a half from the Hydroelectric plant, the point from which the train to Machu Picchu departs, making it a strategic place for those who want to combine their visit with authentic rural experiences. Huayopata is also near Cusco and the main cacao, coffee, and tea producing areas of the country, making Julia's chakra an ideal spot to explore the agricultural richness of the valley. If you want to delve deeper into the world of cacao or coffee, Julia can recommend other people in the area she works with, as well as other local attractions to visit around Huayopata. Julia's chakra represents love for the countryside and celebrates those who, from the beginning, cultivate with love and dedication the fruits that give life to the foods we consume.
