After a hot and wet last week of April, this first week of May has seen typical breezy champagne clear days and cool nights. This is one of the best times of year in this part of the world and both the tea and coffee gardens glow with health.
On the coffee side, the harvest has begun, with a few hundred kg’s of the early ripening cherries being picked each day. We will start harvesting the main and better quality crop towards the end of the month.
The tea factory is still full and will be so for the next 2 weeks or so, after which the effects of the cooler drier weather will kick in and volumes will drop.
This next few months is a period of tidying up, budgeting, planning for the next season, servicing machinery, and making improvements.
