Granja Porcón Community Farming Experience




Granja Porcón (Porcón Farm) is a true agricultural success story in northern Peru. Located upon verdant fields surrounded by wooded mountains, the farm was the result of the controversial agrarian reforms carried out in Peru between 1969 and 1980. These were made by Peru’s military government when General Juan Velasco Alvarado expropriated plantations to give the lands to poor rural workers.
Our visit to the farm will take you through its history and its strong focus on collective work, and you’ll also have the chance to do community farming alongside the farmers.
We’ll leave Cajamarca for the scenic drive to Granja Porcón. The first thing you’ll notice is the vast swathes of forested land that cover many of the hills, encompassing around 10,000 hectares. These were mainly planted for use in the furniture industry, with the saplings grown in a greenhouse before being planted outside.
A highlight of your visit will be the opportunity to witness traditional farming methods in action. From cultivating the land to tending to livestock, you'll gain insight into the agricultural practices that have sustained communities in this region for generations.
Another fascinating aspect of Porcón Farm is its animal sanctuary, where you can observe various species of wildlife in their natural habitat. This sanctuary serves as a refuge for animals, offering them protection and care amidst the tranquil surroundings of the farm.
Whether you're drawn to the scenic beauty of the forest, intrigued by local farming techniques, or eager to observe wildlife in their natural environment as part of your Peru tour package, Porcón Farm offers an unforgettable experience that will deepen your appreciation for the natural world.
