Planting seedlings in Kericho

🔎

Our Head of Coffee Dave is visiting Kenya coffee producer Lot 20 along with a couple of our roasting partners to meet with co-founder Sidney Kibet and learn more about Kenyan coffee production.

Summary

Today the group travelled to a piece of land in Kericho County that Lot 20 purchased earlier this year. Together with the Lot 20 team they worked the land, with a goal to plant 200 SL28 seedlings within the day.
