It is one of 11 washing stations under the Rutuma Cooperative Society, and has over 800 members. Farmers here predominantly cultivate SL28 and SL34 varieties of coffee. The rich clay loam soil of the region, coupled with the favorable climate on the western slopes of the Aberdare range, forms an ideal environment for coffee production, with flowering from February to April and harvest between October and January.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product__description rte quick-add-hidden\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFarmers in this region typically practice mixed farming on small plots of around 0.25 hectares, growing food crops such as maize, beans, potatoes, and vegetables alongside coffee for family consumption.
