Tilte Dera Collective
The Tilte Dera Collective brings together smallholders who each farm a hectare or less of heirloom coffee in Guji, with other crops in the same plots. They deliver ripe cherry to a shared drying station, where it dries on raised beds for several weeks before milling. Lowfield buys the collective's natural lot each year.
