______________

This coffee comes from the Rwenzori mountains of Uganda. All of the coffee is 100% Arabica Coffee grown between 1,500m – 2,000m above sea level. The varieties are mainly SL28 and SL14. The farmers who grew this particular coffee are part of a farmer-owned and governed cooperative called Busongora North Coffee Farmers’ Cooperative. Over 500 families participate in the cooperative as small share contributors.

These farmers are registered and assigned a unique identification number that enables the coffee to be traced back to their farmlands and they are all trained to carry out good agricultural practices which helps achieve a good, solid and quality bean. All of the coffee is received, sorted, and processed at two primary wash stations within Kajole, Kithoma abd Kaswa Parishes, located within close proximity to these farmers. Once it is optimally dried at the wash stations, it is dry milled in Kasese, cupped, and then prepared for export.

Additionally, this coffee helps the educate growers to carry out sustainable, organic agricultural practices that produce high quality, speciality coffees. In addition to the social aspects, all of this coffee is traceable back to the land it was produced on! The long term vision is to support a path to break cycles of generational poverty and equip them with the knowledge to be self-sustaining and forward-thinking and to help them improve their livelihood.
