Peris Wambui Karugondo grew up surrounded by coffee. Her grandparents began growing coffee in the 1960s and, decades later, her parents took over the farm. Today, Peris and all six of her siblings produce coffee; they’ve divided their family’s land into parcels, running each one independently and sharing a wet mill to process their individual lots.
Peris’s shamba (‘farm’ in Swahili) kept the family estate’s original name, Muhathi, and is considered the ‘mother shamba’. It’s fitting, then, that she’s the most hands-on farmer of all the siblings and deeply invested in producing the very best coffee she can. Peris lives on-site and spends her days working alongside her son, Sam, overseeing the harvest from picking through to sorting and processing, ensuring that everything is done to the highest possible standard.
