Sourcing Details Want to support women in coffee? This lot was produced from a women’s collective called Friends of Mothers, which was established in 2015.

The group has 500 members with farms in the Mbale District on the slopes of Mount Elgon. Processing Details During the harvest, each producer meticulously picks ripe cherries, sorts by hand and floats the cherry to remove damaged and less dense coffee.

Next the producer uses their own micro-mill to depulp, ferment, wash and dry the coffee before delivering it to the Friends of Mothers warehouse. Exporting Details Friends of Mothers has its own dry mill facility, which features a fully staffed cupping lab to ensure traceability and quality control throughout the post harvest process.

Friends of Mothers manages the certification process and also helps train producers on best organic practices, which includes using materials like coffee pulp to make organic fertilizers creating an abundant source of plant nutrition that ensures better yields and quality.
