The Kibingo Station is located in a lush valley at 1,900 masl. Every year it buys cherry from nearly 1,800 smallholder farmers across 18 hills. These farmers typically own less than half a hectare of land, and coffee is just one of their sources of income.
Las Lomas is one of seventeen farms managed by Marysabel and Moises Caballero, sitting at 1600 metres above sea level in the Chinacla area near Marcala. Their farms span nearly 200 hectares and grow a mix of varieties.
El Carmen is a small town near Acevedo in southern Huila, where 60 smallholders formed an association in 2017 to gain more control over their coffee’s value. The farmers cultivate their small plots—typically 2 to 5 hectares—between 1200 and 1800 masl.
Justin Musabyimana founded Mahembe Washing Station after returning to Nyamasheke, the region where he grew up. His goal was to invest in the local community by building a wet mill on his father’s land, helping smallholder farmers process and sell their cherry.
Santa Hedwirges is a fourth-generation family farm run by Hugo Brito in the rolling hills of Sul de Minas. The region’s warm climate and steady altitude of 900m offer stable conditions for producing clean, chocolate-driven coffees.
Fazenda Nunes, in Patrocínio, Cerrado Mineiro, spans 600 hectares with over 25 arabica varieties. We started working with them in 2023. The fazenda excels at producing chocolate-forward espresso profiles with great sweetness and mild acidity.
