The Story

The Testi Adorsi washing station is located in Yirgacheffe, Ethiopia, and was built in 2000. It serves around 500 smallholder farmers in the area, who deliver their ripe cherries to the Gersi collection point for processing at this washing station. The coffee here is dried on raised beds for 15–18 days.

Coffees in Ethiopia are typically grown on very small plots of land by farmers who also grow other crops. The majority of smallholders will deliver their coffee in cherry to a nearby washing station or central processing unit, where their coffee will be sorted, weighed, and paid for or given a receipt. Coffee is then processed, usually washed or natural, by the washing station and dried on raised beds. Typically farmers in this region don't have access to and therefore do not utilize fertilizers or pesticides in the production of coffee.
