Roaster notes
The Sidama Coffee Farmers Cooperative Union (SCFCU) has been an institution in southern Ethiopia for over 20 years. Since its founding in 2001, the SCFCU has grown to represent 80,000 individual farmers across more than 50 primary cooperative societies, making it the second largest coffee cooperative union in the country.
Roaster
They took a pioneering approach to sourcing coffee through a relationship model, placing emphasis on direct trade as a way to support thriving livelihoods for producers at origin. They earned Roast Magazine's prestigious 'Roaster of the Year' award in 2013, are home to the first barista union in the USA and are currently transitioning to a worker-owned company. Gimme! Coffee roasts all their coffee on two Probat drum-style roasters at their facility in Ithaca, NY.
