Gaharo Hill
This is a research profile, not an independently conducted farm visit. Producer and coffee relationships are shown only when the records agree. Check the research sources below for supporting evidence.
The story
Gaharo is where the Long Miles Coffee Project began. Farmers cleared the site for Bukeye, Long Miles’ first washing station, and made construction bricks from clay in the valley. Farmers from the same community continue delivering cherries there.
Challenges
The exact blend percentages and individual contributors to SEY’s hill lot are not published. Aging trees, soil health, climate pressure, and access to farm inputs remain documented regional challenges.
Innovations
Long Miles uses Farmer Field Schools and year-round Coffee Scout support. The exact SEY lot was floated, hand-sorted, depulped, fermented dry for 12 hours and submerged for 24 hours, density graded, then raised-bed dried.
Published coffees linked to this farm
For blends, a farm may be named for one documented component without growing the entire coffee. These catalog relationships do not independently verify every lot, harvest or producer. See individual coffee profiles for traceability evidence.
Research sources & verification
These source links were recorded for this farm profile. They document its research trail; a linked source is not, by itself, confirmation of every farm, producer, coffee lot or photo identity.
