Koski Coffee

We are harvesting coffee at the Jericho house.
It is really amazing to see and learn the process of how we get a cup of coffee.


Jonathan is holding the picked, fermented, dried, and hulled coffee beans and roasting our first batch of coffee, a cross between arabica and robusta beans.

We have also been picking loads of guava's from the tree in the front yard.
We have been making a weekly batch of delicious guava sauce.


Not only is it coffee and guava season, we have been picking and eating zucchini, cucumbers, pumpkins, oranges, cocoa nuts, papaya, lemons, tangerines and passion fruits.
This place is really amazing with all the trees and the large garden.
We are indebted to Godfrey the day watchman/gardener here at Jericho for planting, harvesting and helping us learn all about life here.
