Ripe coffee beans
The green band on the far left of the flag symbolizes the department's natural vegetation and agricultural activities. The yellow band in the middle symbolize the department’s contribution to the economy of Colombia. And the purple band on the right of the flag is an expression of maturity. Purple is the color of the coffee bean when it is ready to be picked, coffee being the department's most important product.
gollark: How should I redo the color schemes? There's a color for "random system link of some kind", "page" (eventually "nonexistent page" too), "visited external link", and "unvisited external link".
gollark: What?
gollark: I'm thinking it might be good to use different colors for different types of "link" in minoteaur instead of various near-identical shades of blue.
