Peace Kawomera Coffee Cooperative
Mirembe Kawomera means “delicious peace” in the Ugandan language Luganda. The coffee is grown by 750+ small scale farmers through the Peace Kawomera Co-op, which includes Jews, Christians and Muslins working together to improve their lives.
The certified organic and fair trade coffee can be purchased at St. John’s and will make wonderful gifts for family and friends. Your purchase supports the Co-op but can also improve the health of your family and friends.
The newest research shows that coffee may reduce the risk of developing gallstones, discourage the development of colon cancer, improve cognitive function, reduce the risk of liver damage in people at high risk for liver disease, and reduce the risk of Parkinson’s disease. Coffee has also been shown to improve endurance performance in long-duration physical activities.
