The Karana community represents a collective effort by 377 smallholder farmers in the Kintamani region of Bali, Indonesia. Rooted in the traditional Balinese community culture and practicing Hindu traditions, this group embodies a harmonious relationship between farming and local heritage. The farms, situated at an average elevation of 1,200 meters, span a total planted area of 477 hectares, cultivating S795 and Kartika coffee varieties.
The small-holder farmers in the area employ a variety of processing methods, including natural, fully washed, anaerobic, honey, and wet-hulled techniques, showcasing their dedication to innovation and quality. These diverse processing techniques result in unique flavor profiles that reflect the distinctive terroir of the Kintamani region. In addition to coffee, the farmers also grow oranges, vegetables, and other crops, enhancing the biodiversity and sustainability of their farming practices.
Sustainability lies at the heart of Karana's approach to agriculture. The contributing farmers utilize composting, avoid chemical sprays, and plant suitable overstory trees to promote ecological balance. A new cooperative dry mill, funded by private donations, will further support the farmers by providing accessible and efficient processing facilities during and after the harvest.
The Karana community's vision is to establish itself as a trusted supplier of green coffee beans for both domestic and international markets. By integrating cultural traditions, sustainable practices, and community-driven innovation, the Karana group lot offers a vibrant representation of the Kintamani region's coffee heritage.
