What’s Happening at the Coop!

The past coffee season has proven to be one full of surprises for all our farmers and harvesters with QUALITY being a priority, as with our crop coming on now, QUALITY ALWAYS NO. 1 !

Pruning, plucking , weed control and fertilizing has been done to assist the trees in preparation for the best of the best crop yet to come for the 2011-2012 coffee season. Some of the farmers have also been putting in place the broca traps to help with the control of the BROCA beetle.

Even with the less than typical rainfall to set the flowers during blossoming & with the new battle against the CBB (Broca) we are planning & hoping for a fruitful season. The coffee crop year of 2012-2013 officially starts off with our first bags of coffee cherry to be delivered as early as July 2012.

As you drive through the different coffee regions of Kona, from mauka (upper) to makai (lower) you can witness the many coffee trees in different stages of growth and development. Some will have flower buds, flowers, and developing green cherry on them at the same time. As the buds begin flushing, known as the Kona Snow, these flowers fill the air with a scent of jasmine.

With the onset of the developing green coffee, and the different ripening stages of the coffee cherry the farmers know that the 2011-2012 coffee crop is here again, and it will soon be time to pick the fields.

The Kona Pacific Farmers Coop Farmers Retail and Roasting Facility is now into its second year and has proven to be a "GRAND" find and a "MUST SEE" place to experience "THE BEST" cup/s of coffee in the Island, just kick back, relax and talk story.
