Description: Gitwe stretches from Heza Washing Station all the way to the main road that runs through the northern province of Kayanza. At almost every hour the hill bustles with the activity of village life. People run alongside cars with baskets full to the brim with onions and potatoes to sell. Carpenters craft planks of wood into tables in the small town’s center. Fig trees stand tall on either side of the hill, casting a welcoming shade from the hot East African sun. An assortment of onions, sweet potato, maize, banana, cassava, beans and cabbage are grown alongside coffee in the hill’s rich soils. The Long Miles Coffee Farm can be found on one of Gitwe’s slopes, just above Heza Washing Station. Here, our 7,055 coffee trees are growing alongside our neighbors.
