＜Story＞

The Karambo Washing Station is a production site that began operations in 2021. It is located in Muyinga Province in northeastern Burundi, nestled in a beautiful hilly area near the Ruvubu National Park.

They produce coffee in collaboration with approximately 1,000 small-scale farmers who have farmland on four hills: Karambo, Karira, Kiryama, and Masasa. This particular lot is processed from cherries grown on Karambo hill.

With a mission to "bring the highest quality coffee produced in Burundi to the world while positively impacting the local community," they have implemented the planting of shade trees and leguminous plants for nitrogen fixation and soil erosion prevention. They also encourage the cultivation of bananas, corn, cassava, and beans to improve farmers' incomes.
