Dida Hora smallholder producers
Approximately 350 small-scale producers deliver coffee to Dida Hora Washing Station in Uraga, Guji, Oromia. Their farms average about 2.8 hectares and sit between 2,000 and 2,400 meters, where volcanic soils, reliable rainfall, and high elevations support primarily Kurume coffee.
