Story
About the cooperative from Sustainable Harvest:
Over time these under-resourced women have shown increased dedication toward growing quality coffee and connecting with the international market in order to provide better livelihoods for themselves and their families.
Since 2013 the women of Nyampinga have received training in agronomy, market access, and quality control from Sustainable Growers. The result of the farmer's hard work and enhanced knowledge of coffee production has been a resounding improvement in cup quality.
Nyampinga operates its own washing station, which processes coffee from farmers all over the area. It serves as a key component of the specialty coffee infrastructure in Rwanda. At the coffee washing station the coffee is carefully depulped, fermented, washed, and dried on raised African beds. The members of the cooperative and coffee washing station, diligently hand sort the coffee at each step of the way.
