After the tour of the Banana Plantation we drove thirty minutes to Santa Rosa, Ecuador in the El Oro province. This is where Casa Ostrica is located and where the Cacao Plantation is. I was so thrilled to get involved with Cacao and see what the real story is, as so many people are making a big deal about it these days. Cacao Plantations are springing up again in Columbia, Ecuador and the Ivory Coast of Africa.

 

 

In South America the Cacao operations went away at the advent of bananas popularity in the US. Now the Cacao operations are on their way back and are holding a prime place in agriculture in South America. I was honored to participate in this tour and will relay more information with an impending blog.
