This is only the second year the Central Region (Free State) has been run and you can certainly sense the growing passion. When we visited the region 3 years ago we were so encouraged by how much excitement there is about coffee. In fact they now have 2 dedicated coffee events and the SCASA Regional Champs was held at the Bloemfontein Coffee Extravaganza.
Well done to all involved for making these competitions possible, it is certainly a labour of love.
And of course, congratulations to the competitors and those that have qualified to take part in Nationals next year. We're so proud of you all!
