About Haru Welabu Bire Forest G1 Natural

Uraga Woreda of the East Guji Zone is one of the very few sites where coffee is grown above the 2000masl mark. Uraga is found at the south slope of the South Ethiopian mountain escarpment, at a distance of 450 km from Addis. The topography is a sloppy adulating land type with altitude ranges of 2000-2300asl. The daily temperature ranges between 11-25 degree Celsius. Annual rainfall is over 1500mm; some times as high as 2000mm. The soil type is reddish brown well-textured nitisol with a very good structure and nutrient content.

The coffee is being outsourced from farmers. Similar to other Guji Coffee Growing Districts farmers in Uraga, they grow their coffee in a complex agroforestry system with legume trees (like millettia ferrugnea, albzia spp) as main canopy trees.

Kerchanshe collects red cherries and place them on raised drying beds to get dried by the sun in an open space. After cherries dry, they are taken to their Haro Welebu dry mill where the coffee husk is removed. The final products (green coffee beans) are then sent to the Bule Hora main processing unit which is found 300 km South West of Urga.
