Buwama CFA is a farmer owned organization with over 30 groups; each group contains at least 35
coffee farmer households (members) who are all coffee farmers. The association is found in the central part of Uganda which is favourable for
Robusta coffee. The Association is located in Mpigi district, 60 Km Kampala Capital City along the Kampala - Masaka Highway, covering the whole of Buwama Sub County. It is from Buwama Sub County and Association that Bunjakko Island Sub-county and Association have emerged, not as competition but to decentralize and ensure that services get to the coffee farmers much more easily and faster. The association has both the Board of Director and Management.
Buwama CFA through the support of DANIDA - ASPS through NUCAFE have acquired and established a self-sustaining coffee capable of producing One Hundred thousand (100000) coffee seedlings per year or more. Seedlings are marketed to members of the association at reduced prices to drive an increase on the quantity of coffee in the association and also on the quality of the beans that are produced by the members.
