Karibu Kenya!
Welcome to the first SCA Education Camps in Africa!
Come to Nyeri, Kenya, do SCA courses in English, hang out in coffee farms and meet all the people producing your delicious coffee…
…and party in town with the locals!
Who am I?
Régine Guion-Firmin, AST the Karibu Kahawa Camps founder, owner and coordinator, dedicated to bringing Specialty Coffee Education to Origin to empower small holder Coffee Producers.
Due to challenging climatic conditions, coffee growing countries need our help to experiment new avenues to fight these problems.
By having the Karibu Kahawa Camps running in small coffee estates, we will offer our knowledge to the Coffee Producers by working with them and running Green Coffee and Sensory skills workshops for them.
We will offer these services for the Coffee Producers for free!
We will learn from them as much as we teach them.
- Sensory skills
- Roasting (by September 2019)
- Green Coffee
- Beekeeping
- Permaculture
50% of your fee will fund coffee education for coffee producers, coffee labs equipment, combine coffee huller / grader
Where the camps will be run?
Kaigwa Estate, Mukurwe-Ini.
You will stay in a large friendly house, with several bedrooms, each large enough for 2 or 3 people.
The washing station and the coffee plantation are by the house, with beehives and friendly wild animals. There is a nature trail with a river and waterfalls.
