Kiambu County

Kiambu County is situated in the central highlands of Kenya, bordering Nairobi to the south. Coffee farms in this region typically operate at altitudes ranging from 1,600 to 2,000 meters above sea level. The area is characterized by fertile, well-drained volcanic soils that support both coffee and tea cultivation. It is also home to the Kenyan Coffee Research Foundation and is recognized as the largest dairy-producing county in the country. Many local growers utilize organic fertilization methods, such as cow manure, to maintain their coffee trees.
