Lalessa is a brand new in 2023 wet mill set up in Gedeb Yirgacheffe on 32 acres where future plans include a modern processing facility. This wet mill collects cherries from local small-holder farmers in the region.
 
Coffees in Ethiopia are typically grown on very small plots of land by farmers who also grow other crops. The majority of smallholders will deliver their coffee in cherry to a nearby washing station or central processing unit, where their coffee will be sorted, weighed, and paid for or given a receipt. Coffee is then processed, usually washed or natural, by the washing station and dried on raised beds.
 
Typically farmers in this region don't have access to and therefore do not utilize fertilizers or pesticides in the production of coffee.
