GROWN BY AROUND 1,800 SMALLHOLDER FARMERS IN THE NGARIAMA COOPERATIVE, INCLUDING 600 WOMEN, EACH TENDING ROUGHLY 200 TREES ON TINY PLOTS UNDER HALF A HECTARE. THESE FARMERS DON’T JUST GROW COFFEE—THEY ALSO NURTURE GREVILLEA, MACADAMIA, TEA, CORN AND BANANAS. THE FACTORY IS A HUB FOR LEARNING, WELCOMING VISITS FROM AGRICULTURAL MINISTERS AND COMPANIES OFFERING TRAINING. THE CO-OP SUPPORTS ITS FARMERS WITH PRE-FINANCING, HELPING COVER SCHOOL FEES AND PRODUCTION COSTS SO THE COMMUNITY THRIVES ALONGSIDE THE COFFEE. IN THE CUP, EXPECT JUICY BLACKCURRANT, A TOUCH OF ZESTY LIME, AND A SMOOTH CHOCOLATE FINISH.
