Roaster Notes
The future of certified coffee from Kenya depends on the successes of the hardworking farmers and processing mills in Kericho. Kabngetuny Farmers Cooperative Society is one cooperative that is working to make this transformation into a reality. They were one of the first cooperatives in the region to work with Fairtrade, and since then have focused on partnerships to promote women’s ownership of coffee farms and small-scale organic conversion projects.
