Akha Ama Coffee

What is the story behind Akha Ama?

Akha Ama Coffee was founded in 2007 as a local enterprise to support disadvantaged farmers and to encourage them in their efforts directed at sustainable farming.
Akha Ama Coffee aims at helping coffee farmers. The area around Maejantai village was particularly afflicted by economic crisis and has left families having to fight for their existence – with no access to education, food and health care. In the past farmers have used remedies such as chemical products, fertilizer and pesticides or insecticides, in the hope of speedy improvement. They did not realise then, that by doing so they threatened their very existence even more so.
