The Coffee Gardens was established in 2017 with the goal of producing incredible specialty coffee in an ethical way, offering a transparent and direct link between coffee farmers and coffee consumers. 

The Coffee Gardens Project was established in 2017 for the purposes of improving farmers’ income and livelihoods by providing rural employment opportunities and increasing transparency / traceability throughout the supply chain thorugh means such as providing farmer training in Good Agricultural Practises (GAP). 

The coffee in this micro lot is produced by the farmers on the mountain above The Coffee Gardens’ washing station. The farmers bring the coffee down to the processing station themselves, earning extra income.
