About this Experience

The Kataara Women’s Poverty Alleviation Group (KWPAG) offers an immersive "garden-to-cup" coffee experience located near Queen Elizabeth National Park in the Rubirizi district of Uganda. This community-based initiative allows visitors to engage directly with the farmers, participate in the processing of coffee, and support local women who have turned to agriculture to improve their livelihoods. The Katara Coffee Experience Highlights: Farm-to-Cup Tour: Visitors can tour the coffee gardens, pick red coffee berries from the trees, and learn about the entire process, including drying, roasting, and grinding the beans into fresh coffee powder. Interactive Roasting: The experience includes a hands-on session where guests can roast the coffee beans over an open fire and enjoy a fresh brew. Social Impact: The project is run by local women, many of whom are widows, providing them with a sustainable income and reducing poverty in the area.
