We arrange coffee farm tours at our two Bwami coffee plantations in Ssekanyonyi where we practice agroforestry; coffee grown within a tree plantation and in Kasanda where we practice regenerative coffee farming at our hybrid coffee plantation model that literally looks like a coffee forest. At our Bwami Coffee farm, coffee is planted within very small coffee spaces, using the Brazilian coffee plantation model and a hybrid spacing model of 6ftx6ft between coffee tree rows and from one coffee tree to the next.
