Where it Comes From
Dukunde Kawa Cooperative
Nectar is grown in Gakenke, in the northern province of Rwanda by members of the Dukunde Kawa Cooperative. This cooperative serves over 2,100 farmers, and provides equipment, training, and wash stations to small holders who would otherwise be unable to access high quality equipment. Working together allows these smaller farmers to combine their lots and use the best processing methods to guarantee higher prices for their harvests.
This specific blend is harvested entirely from women owned farms—Eighty percent of the Dukunde Kawa Cooperative's members are women, not only allowing them to bring in income for themselves and their families, but offering them tools to build an economic voice in the region. Consume consciously.
