Located in Buleleng, in northern Bali, between 1,200 and 1,300 meters above sea level, Asah Gobleg is at the heart of the regenerative farm project launched by Adena in 2023. The site is situated in a historically coffee-producing region, where part of the land gradually shifted toward intensive orange and flower crops, accompanied by heavy use of chemical inputs.
When Adena began working on the farm, the objective was to progressively restore these soils and recreate a more diversified agricultural system. Chemical inputs were stopped, an on-site nursery was established, and coffee trees were integrated into an agroforestry model combining banana trees, papaya trees, and various tree species. The farm also produces its own organic compost using materials available on-site. In January 2024, approximately 1,500 young Ateng Super, Sigararutang, and Yellow Bourbon coffee trees were planted on a 0.7-hectare plot, alongside complementary trees and crops designed to promote biodiversity, shade, and soil fertility. In 2025, the project continues with the planting of approximately 1,000 additional Komasti coffee trees.
An older plot, planted in 2021 with around 1,600 Kopyol coffee trees, is also integrated into the project. Certain flower crops were intentionally preserved there to maintain a source of income for the producers during the agricultural transition.
Today, Asah Gobleg serves as both a production farm and an experimental ground for Adena. The project notably includes work on soil restoration, agroforestry, compost production, and the utilization of coffee processing by-products. Adena also collaborates with Bumi Terra on long-term efforts dedicated to soil restoration and reforestation in coffee landscapes.
Ultimately, the ambition extends beyond the farm's boundaries: Adena is also working with neighboring producers in Gobleg, Munduk, Umajero, and Gesing to strengthen local coffee production and share regenerative agricultural practices.
