About us

A new grower, rooted in southern Chile.

Volcanes Patagonia SpA is a young company based in Osorno, in Chile's Los Lagos Region. We're planting our first raspberry pilot and intend to get it right from day one: sound agronomy, real data and plain honesty.

Why we exist

Our idea is simple: grow quality raspberries in southern Chile by pairing agronomic know-how with technology we design and build ourselves.

We're deliberately starting small — a 3-hectare pilot split into 4 irrigation blocks — to learn our soil, water and climate before we scale up.
