The Hidden Valley Mine’s efforts to promote sustainable agriculture are transforming Nauti village into a thriving hub for coffee production. The mine’s legacy project, aimed at preparing landowner communities for life after mining, has brought essential training and tools to farmers like Mandra Jason. After years of hard work, Mandra said the workshops helped her boost both her skills and income. “The training changed how we work—it’s made us better farmers.” The support includes infrastructure like a coffee dryer house, helping couples like Shalome Raimon and Raimon Belris refine their operations. “The dryer house has been a game changer for us,” Shalome said. On Wednesday, the launch of the Tia Hanama Weta Co-operative Society provided further momentum, with Watut LLG President Waka Daimon presenting K50,000 to support the co-operative’s efforts. Another K50,000 will follow in 2025. “We are proud to see Nauti farmers advancing with support from Hidden Valley Mine,” Daimon said, urging the mine to continue partnering with the community to establish local production facilities. Nauti coffee is already making waves. It's being sold in Port Moresby’s Hilton Hotel and preparing for international markets in Australia. With Hidden Valley Mine’s guidance, the village is building a future of self-reliance and prosperity—one coffee bean at a time.
