Mensur Jamal
story
Mensur Jemal owns an 18-hectare farm at 2000 masl. in the region of Jimma, Ethiopia. Mensur is a part of the Tokuma Farmer Group; a collective of farmers in Western Ethiopia who organise to share knowledge, improve quality and market their coffees to the market. The members of the Tokuma Farmer Group not only farm their coffee but also process and export their lots; something that's still very rare in Ethiopia.
