Farmers deliver their cherries grown in the surrounding areas of Idido, Cherbenta, Wachota and Gerbota.
The distinct wet and dry seasons of these areas create prime conditions for coffee processing and farming methods in the region, which remain largely traditional. Coffee trees are typically intercropped with other food crops.
This method is common among smallholders because it maximizes land use and provides food for their families. Additionally, most farmers are organic by default!
