Rare in Ethiopia: a woman owns her own farm
Sourced by our agency
It is on her farm that Genet collects cherries from neighbouring producers as well as her own crop.
Straight from the Limmu Kossa area near the village of Wolensu, this natural coffee is produced by Genet Seifu. It cultivates on 100 hectares the varieties 74110, 74140 and 74145 under forest cover.
Genet employs 14 full-time employees on its farm and up to 200 during the peak of the harvest.
This coffee is decaffeinated by Descafecol.
WOMEN COFFE, why support women producers?
Women play a vital role in the industry, they have a strong involvement in the farms and represent more than 70% of the labour force in the fields, harvesting, sorting the beans...
However, only 10% of them are entrepreneurs and only 20% are landowners (including joint ownership with their spouses).
Increasing the income of women producers has a direct and positive impact on the education of children and the comfort of the home.

Manual
Woreda Limmu Kossa
The Limmu Kossa terroir is located in the Oromo region, around 80 km north of the town of Jimma, within the appellation of the same name. The coffees from this terroir are grown in a forest made up of a variety of ancient species.
The rich soils and environment of this terroir give this coffee its special character. The name "Limmu" is traditionally associated with washed coffee from the Jimma region, as this was the name of the first washing station in the area.
By way of distinction, plain coffees were called "Jimma". In this region, coffee growing is essential for both nature and its inhabitants, because of the value it adds to the forest areas.
