Hi! I'm young Dominique!
Hola! I am Dominique Betancourt, Elias Betancourt's youngest daughter of his 7 children. I have always felt a deep connection when in Puerto Rico, but my fear and shame of not speaking Spanish has always held me back from embracing it. My 40s brought about a transformation after leaving corporate life and of course the COVID pandemic gave me time to reflect.
I dicovered what is important to me, and my passion for Puerto Rico, coffee and the environment has driven me to find a way to connect with my fathers family, my heritage and create a legacy for the Betancourt Family.
The Betancourt Revilatization Project
My vision is to revitalize Abuella Reye's farm and build a future for my family and my extended family. I want to ensure the farm stays in the hands of Reye's descendants and revitalize the farm back into a working coffee farm, growing, exporting and roasting coffee.
I will build a home to live on the farm when we are ready and create an eco-tourist boutique finca with the vision of up to 50 guests to stay in various, small accommodations that dot the landscape. We will create an experience with a focus on showcasing Puerto Rican culture, teaching the in's and outs of coffee and connecting people to the Betancourt family history.
This will be a place for family, friends and the world to enjoy and connect to the wonders of Puerto Rico.
