Genji Challa Washing Station
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
SEY reports that Genji Challa began processing in the 2018/2019 season as Nano Challa Cooperative's second site, following TechnoServe-supported development of washing-station infrastructure in southwestern Ethiopia.
Challenges
The exact current Verve release does not publish farm-by-farm identities for the approximately 400 contributing smallholders.
Innovations
Verve says the current coffee is depulped with a Penagos eco-pulper to reduce water use, dried under shade, then finished in direct sunlight.
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.
