Worka Sakaro Washing Sation is located in the Gedio Zone. The washing
station works with over 400 smallholder farmers in the region. These
farmers grow their coffee on the steep mountain slopes at approximately
2,000 to 2,200 meters above sea level.
 
The coffee is grown in the shade of Birbira, Corsica Africana, and
Ensete Ventricosum trees. The coffee is picked when the cherries are
ripe and then dried on raised beds for 18 to 21 days. Once the coffee is
dried it is then milled to remove the husks and stored in a local
warehouse before being transported for final processing before
shipment.
