Beshasha is a lot grown in the Jimma region at 2000- 2100m. Located in the south-west of the country, this area is renowned for its extraordinary biodiversity, with numerous nature reserves. Fertile soil and a favourable climate make Jimma ideal for agriculture, particularly for coffee cultivation.

Mustefa Abakeno manages a small 18-hectare farm and two processing facilities. The Beshasha station is dedicated to the production of washed coffee, and serves as a hub for knowledge exchange and technical assistance for local farmers, where ideas and experiences are shared and where daily challenges are tackled collectively. This collaborative culture has strengthened the sense of belonging and pride among the farmers, increasing their commitment to producing high-quality coffee.
