Pluma Hidalgo is located in the upper left quadrant of this map. Coffee may be grown in this region beginning at about 500 meters elevation (first contour interval on this map).

Pluma Hidalgo is a small mountain community located northeast of Chacalapa, Oaxaca, in a coffee-growing region. Pluma means feather and comes from the shape created by a cloud forming at the top of the nearby hilltop. Hidalgo honors the priest by that name who played a role in securing Mexico's independence. From its hillside perch you can see the Pacific Ocean.
