Spring Valley Coffe Lavington
Blue Ribbon Coffee Run 2026

*COFFEE RUN 2026: THE HARVEST* - Saturday 28th February 2026 at Spring Valley Coffee, Lavington - a celebration of the journey - from soil to cup, from effort to reward. A run inspired by where it all begins: the farms, the grind, the patience, and the payoff. Expect rolling terrain (because nothing worth harvesting is ever flat), rich coffee aromas at the finish, and that unmistakable Blue Ribbon vibe where community, movement and meaning meet. The first of our 4-part coffee adventure for 2026. As always, we don't mess around with merchandise. Custom Medal and an enamel coffee mug await you at the end. As always, the coffee, powered by Spring Valley Coffee (The Roastery) and the vibes - will be top tier.
As always, slots are limited - https://www.blueribbon.or.ke/events/coffee-run-2026-the-harvest/form
