About: Masha Washing Station brings together the work of more than 1,100 smallholder farmers in Burundi's Kayanza region, where most families grow coffee alongside food crops on small parcels of land. Many producers care for just 200 to 250 coffee trees, making every harvest an important source of income.
At the washing station, quality begins with careful cherry selection before the coffee is pulped, fermented, washed and slowly dried on raised beds. Every stage is managed with precision to preserve the clarity, sweetness and structure of the final cup.
Greenco supports these farming communities year-round through agronomy training, seedling nurseries and organic fertiliser programs that help improve productivity and renew ageing coffee trees. Their investment extends to youth employment, environmental stewardship and stronger market access, helping build a more resilient future for both producers and Burundian coffee.
