Héctor Correa started La Finca Coincidencia with a concentrated effort on agriculture. Initially the farm was not as big as it is today, but through laws and the growth of their own family, the farm has grown into 23 hectares. There is hardly any wasted space, as most of the land is sown with a variety of trees, crops, and other vegetation. The farm sells some of what they plant to companies that supply food for the population and tourism. However, much of what is grown on the farm doesn’t leave. The Correa family use many of their crops to feed themselves and those who visit the farm.

A source of great pride for Héctor and his family is their coffee and honey production. Although coffee is grown mainly in the mountainous regions of Cuba, Héctor’s coffee has been flourishing. The decision to grow coffee was planned well before the first seeds were planted. Héctor needed to grow trees tall enough to provide the necessary shade required for the coffee plants to thrive. As time goes on, the coffee production will continue to increase and become more developed. In addition to growing coffee, the farm has a great production of honey. Matanzas is known in Cuba as the leading province in honey production. Over the past 5 years, the Correa’s have created a successful beehive that contains 70,000 bees produces around 105 kilograms of honey per year.

Héctor’s belief is that agriculture is the foundation of society. His philosophy as an agriculturist is to maintain a balance with nature. He gives happiness to nature and through his land he receives happiness in return. Some of what he grows is not sold or necessary for food production. Some plants’ sole purpose is to create pigments used to decorate ceramic pieces. What makes Héctor happiest about the farm is that some plants are planted for botanical purposes to increase the diversity and beauty of the land. The farm is beautiful, lush and well kept. Héctor likes to say that when he is among farmers, he is an artist, but when he is among artists, he is a farmer.
