Timing matters in specialty coffee — and in Kenya, knowing the harvest cycle is key to sourcing fresh, vibrant lots. Understanding when coffee is picked, processed, sampled, and shipped helps roasters plan ahead, whether you’re buying at scale or targeting specific profiles.
This Kenya coffee harvest calendar provides a reliable overview of how the season unfolds. While dates can vary slightly each year, we update the timeline annually with firsthand insights from our partners at origin. External factors such as weather patterns or political developments may also affect timing, so use this as a planning tool for Kenyan green coffee — accurate, but flexible.
