Hey there, it’s Joy, and I’m absolutely glowing over this article about Ethiopian coffee farmers transforming their lives and forests!

In Oromia’s Ilu Ababor Zone, 4,000 smallholder farmers joined Farm Africa’s project to plant 300,000 trees across 5,000 acres, making their coffee farms eco-friendly while raising their incomes by 45%.

It’s so uplifting to hear how farmers like Abde Musa now control their own prices, bringing pride and prosperity to their cooperatives.

This story proves that caring for the earth and building a better life go hand in hand—it’s a burst of green joy
