Val&tins Garden Isule Pure, Uganda
The Isule coffee plantation is located at the foot of the Rwenzori massif in western Uganda, also known as the Mountains of the Moon. The ripe cherries are picked by hand, washed and dried in the sun. The Pure Isule is grown biodynamically by the farmers of the small Katabukenene cooperative, free from pesticides or artificial fertilisers.
The Rwenzori Massif is a UNESCO World Heritage Site due to its high ecological importance. The Greek geographer Ptolemy wrote about the legendary "Mountains of the Moon", where the Nile is said to have originated. Trees covered in dense lichen and unspoilt plants line the path to one of the most beautiful natural paradises in Central Africa. Despite its close proximity to the equator, the climate is pleasantly mild and the soil is rich in nutrients. These ideal conditions favour the cultivation of high-quality Arabica coffee.
The plantation is located at over 1,600m above sea level. The ripe coffee cherries are carefully picked by hand on the steep slopes. The coffee is washed, processed and dried in the sun. Coffee is the only source of income for the Isule village. Every additional franc that the farmers receive per kilogramme secures the income for the families and thus also the expensive school fees for the many children.
In western Uganda, the coffee is often sold to middlemen at below cost price and mixed with other low-quality varieties. In this way, coffee of varying quality ends up on the world market. val&tin garden believe that direct trade offers a real opportunity to bring producers and consumers together directly. They have therefore launched the Isulecoffee project. With this project, they provide farmers with a direct market connection and thus sustainably improve the working and living conditions in Isule.
