The Producer:
Khalid Shifa is an exceptional coffee producer and processor from the Goma region in Jimma, Ethiopia. We have worked with him since one of our trips to Ethiopia back in 2020. We are always looking forward to getting his coffees, and the quality is always outstanding.
 
The Echemo farm was originally established by his grandfather by harvesting wild-growing heirloom coffee trees from the nearby Choche forest. Khalid is particularly mindful of preserving the natural state of this unique piece of land covering 35 hectares at an altitude of around 2100 masl.
 
Khalid is farming 100% organically, and the farm and green coffee are organic certified. This means he does not use any pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, or mineral fertilisers. They remove weeds by hand and believe that by creating a healthy ecosystem, pests and diseases will be less of a problem.  
 
Khalid has become a central figure in the surrounding coffee community, where he offers training and shares his knowledge about farming methods, cultivation, harvest, and processing.
