Two pilgrims passionate about nature, history and spirituality who traveled from Cieza (Murcia) and Bogotá (Colombia) to meet by chance among forests, churches and hostels.
Now we want to be hospitallers in this Farm, an ideal stop on the Camino de la Vera Cruz de Caravaca where we can share experiences withfor those who want to reach the holy city on foot or by bike at any time of the year, but also for anyone who wants to enjoy authentic agrotourism experiences.
But so that you know a little more about us, we define ourselves:
Journalist with studies in Political Science, Sociology and Law. I define myself as a social entrepreneur who has found in agrotourism the best way to achieve professional and, above all, personal fulfillment. The launch of this farm is a tribute to my family, dedicated to the cultivation and marketing of Cieza peaches since at least the 19th century, but probably for many centuries before that.
My grandfather Pascual was chosen by the farmers of Cieza as the first fruit seller in the municipality in 1920 so that he could sell his products in the Mercado de Abastos. After his early death, my grandmother Josefa had to take the family business forward with the help of her children while they were still very young.
Of From having a humble fruit stand, they managed to create a company that, in 2004, had more than 500 workers and more than 800 hectares of their own cultivated apricots, plums, flat peaches and, above all, Cieza peaches. Pioneers in drip irrigation and in the export of stone fruit, the book 'El Melocotón en la Historia de Cieza' dedicates a whole chapter to them where you can learn many more details of their history forged with tenacity and love for the cultivation of this quality product:
With Finca La Floración I humbly take over from my family and I want visitors to be able to enjoy the smell and taste of traditional varieties of Cieza peaches. Planted on one hectare, you can see them throughout the year in their different seasons, such as flowering and autumn, and, above all, eat them.
I am an Industrial Engineer with specialization in Quality, Audits and Industrial Safety. I have more than 25 years of experience in the civil construction and infrastructure sector in Colombia.
But my life took a significant turn after walking the Camino de Santiago alone with my backpack. This experience taught me to let go of people and material things that did not contribute to my happiness. The pandemic reinforced this lesson, giving me a unique opportunity to share time with my parents and reaffirm my love for my family.
Meeting Antonio led me to make a radical decision: to leave behind the stress of the city, my country, my family, my friends and my job to follow my dream of living in harmony with nature.
I arrived in Murcia and focused my training on sustainable tourism with a Master's Degree in Tourism Business Management. With my rural roots and the teachings of my parents, I have integrated the passion for crafts, handicrafts and agriculture. Thus, I began to create unique pieces and develop a small vegetable garden at home and on the farm.
My enthusiasm for tourism merges with my vision of life. Now, I offer handmade and personalized products, and provide authentic experiences on the farm, connecting people with the beauty and tranquility of the natural environment.
