In order to avoid any possible service disruptions and ensure timely delivery of your orders, Rogue Wave Coffee is taking proactive steps in response to negotiations between Canada Post and the Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW). In anticipation of a potential strike, we are temporarily disabling the use of Canada Post as a delivery carrier until a resolution is found and normal service resumes. Additionally, please ensure that your shipping address does not include a PO Box, as deliveries to PO Boxes are only possible via Canada Post.
Founded in 1976, the Layo Teraga cooperative provides market access for its smallholder members that would otherwise not have existed in Guji, where prices for coffee have historically been lower than neighboring Gedeo or Sidama zones because of this lack of market access. Located in northern Uraga in the Guji zone, the 1841 smallholder members of the cooperative grow coffee in gardens around their homes in semi-forested environments at staggeringly high elevations of 2342 MASL.
