FARM INFO
Aricha is a remote community home to one of the oldest coffee-growing traditions in the world. At harvest, producers transport bags of cherry by motorcycle, horse, or donkey to the nearest collection center. These bags then travel by truck to the central collection center in Adorsi. During the rainy season, temperatures reach 25c/77f, with higher humidity than the rest of the year. These conditions are ideal for coffee plants.
The producers of Aricha intercrop their coffee with native trees of the area like the false banana tree to shade and fertilize their fields. Since the producers deliver all their coffee in cherry, they don’t have the waste generated by depulping to compost with, so the collection centers prepare and store organic compost and distribute it among the producers. Their coffee is fermented between 48 and 72 hours in fermentation tanks then dried between 4 and 5 days on raised beds.
