Tabe Burka washing station is in Uraga, which is part of the Guji zone. Uraga is bordered by the Ode Shakiso in the South-East and Gedeb (Yirgacheffe) in the West
The founder of Tabe Burka washing station, Mr. Tadesse Edema, has coffee in his veins. He comes from a coffee-oriented family of 29 brothers whom all work with coffee. His brothers, Girma and Dereje, are famous in the Guji zone because they produce such outstanding quality coffee in Uraga and Ambela.
Tadesse Edema collects his coffee from five farmer groups. Each farmer owns approximately 3 hectares of land and cultivates maize trees, banana, and fruit trees – besides their coffee crop. Tadesse pays the farmers groups in advance when harvest begins. This gives the smallholders enough incentive to harvest quality. Naturals are dried for 15 – 18 days.
