People of this village depend entirely on growing coffee, with rain the main source of watering their farms.
the region of Haraaz
Haraaz is known as one of Sana’a best and oldests coffee growing communities, with over 1,500 coffee farming families. The area has lush valleys and highlands where many different types of crops are grown. However, coffee remains the most important. The stratospheric altitudes, where the coffee is grown, adds to the unique flavour profile of Haraazi coffee and the farmers believe that the coffee is so distinctive because of the region’s fertile soil. Over 90% of all the crops grown in Haraaz are coffee, making it Yemen’s largest coffee growing region.
