Our farm animals have a job to do on our Costa Rican farm!
Our farm animals all have a job on the farm on the Finca Lilo de Biolley. The sheep eat the grass on the road and in between the coffee rows. We have a black sheep too. She seems to be the wayward one who wanders from the group. The sheep are great at replacing machinery [...]
The Little Biolley School In Costa Rica
We brought 5 laptops for the kids!!! We are planning on bringing down 5 more in November. They desperately need materials! They have no textbooks. No textbooks…….. can you believe that? The kids copy from one computer and then one student reads the text and dictates to the class to copy. So we are going [...]
Pure, clean water…where? Biolley, Costa Rica!
As we all know, the water supply in the United States is quite a concern. Many main water supply sources are polluted with dangerous contaminants or chemicals. An important concern and a must have when finding our retirement destination was the water supply. Here in the Talamanca Mountain range there is plenty of the purest [...]
From San Vito to Biolley in Costa Rica
This little film clip was taken while sitting as a passenger in our Jeep Cherokee. I just finished reviewing a property in San Vito to add to our listings for the cowboy who has his finca (coffee farm) in San Vito. We are saying good bye to him and on our way back to the [...]

Farm livin’ is the life for me! Green acres on our beautiful farm in Biolley, Costa Rica!
This post is dedicated to all the green around the area. This is during the dry season but there is plenty of green around our place! It is a typical tropic scene where there is a dry season but it comes with rain. Rain is mixed with plenty of sunshine year round. Pretty much all [...]
Two coasts so close together? Of course, it’s Costa Rica!
Costa Rica is appropriately named. The country boasts of two coasts. The Caribbean Sea and the Pacific Ocean. We discussed some of the Caribbean in a previous post. This post features the central and southern coast line of Costa Rica. We think it is some of the most beautiful coastline on the Pacific side. The [...]
Why spend tons on a coffee roaster?
I’ve been watching videos on coffee roasting to provide more information to our readers and future BiolleyBuzz coffee bean consumers! We are going to sell our beans direct from the poor farmer to you. No middlemen, no green bean distributors, no “charitable” foundations who sell coffee. “Fair trade” and “charitable” organizations have too many hands [...]
Down the road from the farm
The area in which we live not only provides incredible million dollar views, but we are close to Bocas de Torro ( a few hours drive) and San Blas ( a few more hours drive) beaches in Panama on the Caribbean side. Just a short jaunt from Biolley to the border of Costa Rica and [...]
The Dry Season In Biolley, Costa Rica
Biolley is an area that is wetter than most areas in Costa Rica. There is more rainfall on average here than in other parts of the country. Even though the dry season is coming around, there will be a few torrential downpours in Biolley before the actual dry season makes its way here. Biolley has a [...]
What about water? Fresh water in Costa Rica!
There are waterfalls and rivers to swim in all over Costa Rica. It’s great here in Costa Rica because the variety in the country is so accessible being that you are not that far way from the mountains or the beach wherever you go inside Costa Rica. Both the beach and mountains are very different [...]
