Just 12km from Bwenda in the Cyanika sector sits Gitega Hills. Slightly larger than Bwenda, Gitega covers an area of around 6 hectares and is nearby the small town of Miko. Established by RTC in 2016, the station has been managed since then by Alex. Everyone who works at Gitega is from the local community and Alex feels that the station plays a valuable role in the area for the work it provides. Additionally, the station provides farmers with organic EM2 compost which consists of recycled cherry pulp from the station with some animal manure.
