The Oreti Estate has been owned by the Harries family for generations. It is one of the last remaining medium-sized farms in Kenya and sits on rich volcanic red soils. The 35-hectare farm (considered large by Kenyan standards) was named after New Zealand’s Oreti Beach, where Boyce’s grandfather met his grandmother. In 1961, Peter Harries planted SL14 alongside SL28. Despite being susceptible to disease, SL14 is kept for its exceptional quality.
The family also owns Chania farm, with 80 hectares of indigenous forests planted to encourage biodiversity. Together, the farms employ 40 full-time staff and up to 300 seasonal workers during harvest. They also provide support like a nursery school for employees’ children.
