Haile Gebre owns and operates two farms and a washing station under the Mordecofe name, short for ‘Mora Mora River Valley Development Coffee’. Mordecofe represents Haile’s own farms as well as the network of neighboring producers he buys from in the Guji highlands of southern Ethiopia. Stumptown has offered Ethiopia Mordecofe every year since 2006.
"Let us grow together," is one of Mordecofe's core principles. To Haile this means providing services and proper payment to his workers and outgrowers, which helps the greater organization succeed. Mordecofe provides these farmers with new seedlings and extensive education on harvesting, cherry selection, and organic agricultural practices.
