The story
Founded in 2012 by Ismael Hassen and his family in the forested highlands of Odo Shakiso.
Challenges
Three-fifths of the 500-hectare property is cultivated; the rest is retained as protected wild forest.
Innovations
The farm uses natural fertilizers and compost, organic weed and pest control, indigenous shade, small-batch fermentation, hand sorting, and slow raised-bed drying.
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.
