Mayabeque, Cuba: It is impossible to visit the Covered Houses near the Agricultural Company of the municipality of Melena del Sur and leave without meeting Inocente Acosta Lezcano, founder of them, about 20 years ago.
As we approach, he discovers his sweaty head and I guess the rush in his gaze at the interruption that my claim means, however with kindness he tells me some of the reasons why he has dedicated part of his life to this place of the.
First, he remembers with nostalgia, what he calls the golden age of the houses, that of dreamy peppers and tomatoes, but he has faith that better times will come to reward the dedication of the group, characterized by young people who have been nourished by their experience.
With his 58th birthday and two decades in the Covered Houses of Melena del Sur , Inocente Acosta Lezcano confesses that it would be very difficult renouncing to the soft humidity inside the roofed structures or the color of the vegetable crops that vigorous growers fall in love with and delight the palate of those who consume them.
