Kabtamu Family

The Kabtamu family consists of husband and wife team Geremew Dambi and Tsehay Kabtamu, who operate a 2.79-hectare coffee farm in the Yirgacheffe region of Ethiopia. They are members of the Jabanto farmers group and utilize garden-style farming techniques that interweave coffee trees with local food crops like enset and taro. Tsehay manages the production and processing of their natural-sundried coffee, while Geremew serves as a local agronomist with the Yirgacheffe Agricultural Board to provide cultivation training.
