Who We Are?

Noah's Ark Farmers Association Uganda is an umbrella coffee farmers association founded in 2020 as a brain child of Noah's Ark Children Ministry Uganda operating within areas of Kayunga, primarily in the villages that make up Kangulumira. NAFAU has grown and evolved as a vibrant private sector led farmer organization formed to serve and position farmers well in the liberalized coffee value chain in Uganda.

60% of global coffee supply comes from smallholder farmers.

Farmers who have access to tools, technology, and knowledge are more likely to be profitable and to stick with farming.

5 countries produce 72% of the world’s coffee.

The world’s coffee supply is consolidating. Thriving origin diversity brings the economic benefits of coffee to farmers in more countries and gives roasters choices.

We need 25% more coffee by 2030

Estimated demand for coffee is steadily increasing while climate change puts more pressure on landscapes. More productive varieties can help us meet the challenge.

Our Testimonial

What Farmers Say

client

I have been taught best practices of coffee farming, i pick only red coffee berries from the plant and even when dried up, there is a possibility of taking coffee to the hulling factory so that i can sell FAQ. In return i get the coffee husks which i use to mulch my coffee garden. At the end of every year, members get christmas baskets as a sign of appreciation from the association. I get farmer loans and pay back with coffee
