Gatina Washing Station sits a few kilometers outside the town of Karatina in Nyeri County. The station was built in 1968, nestled between the western slopes of Mt. Kenya and the eastern slopes of the Aberdares mountains. It is managed by Mugaga Farmers’ Cooperative Society. Today, the station receives cherry from 790 members. Of those, 280—over 30%—are women. The 790 members of Gatina station cultivate a total of 142 hectares. This breaks down to about a tenth of a hectare—or a few hundred trees—per farmer. Such small coffee ‘gardens’ makes it possible, vital even, to focus on specialty processing and increase the value per kilogram of cherry picked. Farm labor is usually entirely provided by family members, which can often make maintaining specialty cultivation and picking practices easier. Many of the farmers also grow tea, maize and legumes to consume or sell at local markets for additional cash income.

Cafetoria
We are a small and multi-cultural team of coffee lovers who work with passion to extract the best expressions of coffee. We love diversity and we found on coffee, with its different origins and flavour profiles, the perfect raw material to find a way to communicate, to be creative, to promote diversity and to impact people’s life.
Our coffee adventure started in 2001 on the coffee lands of the Peruvian Amazon forest. A delicious cup of an organic coffee was the start of a conversation with a small group of smallholder farmers and it was there when we understood the difficulties of small coffee farmers and the benefits or organic cultivation. Should a very good coffee serve to help people? We asked ourselves this question and, despite the low perception of speciality coffees at that time, we started to get involved in the exciting world of coffe.
So many years has passed after our first cup of coffee with the coffee producers but our passion and motivation to promote great coffees and serve people are still intact. We will continue delighting our customers, promoting organic coffees as much as quality is not compromised and making a difference in everything we do.
