The Tetteh Quarshie cocoa farm, also known as the Ecomuseum of Cocoa, is the founding cocoa farm in Ghana. It is located in Akuapim-Mampong around 58km from Accra. Tetteh Quarshie established the farm in 1879 using seeds brought back from Bioko, Equatorial Guinea.[1] Three trees planted by Quarshie remain at the farm.[2] The farm is currently around one acre in size,[3] and is managed by the Cocoa Research Institute of Ghana.[4][5]
