About Me

I'm 30 years old young man married with one wife and a proud father of one boy, holder of bachelor's degree in telecommunication engineering for the past 20 or so years been living along farmers who have been not been that successful because of lack of technology and and know-how. as i studied our society the population growth is too high and most of people are venturing in real estate which have put farming and land for farming under threat. i decided to take this as an opportunity and start farming which is now in demand because of high food demand. most of my past time i love socializing meeting friends and also traveling.

My Business

Farming is broad but i decided to venture is horticulture crops (sukumawiki, spinach, tomatoes, managu, and sometimes carrots and cabbages) which have easy market and in very high demand and easier than livestock in management . living in outcast big town like Thika , ruiru and Nairobi the demand is soo high and the transportation / accessibility to the market is soo easy, love farming and i love eating greens which i am sure where they have been grown. Most of the profit i use to lease more land to farm and also support my wife because just the other day she opened a cosmetic shop and right now its in teething period.

Project Proposal

we want to buy solar panels for powering water pumps for irrigation,
this will help in production since we can no longer use rainfall due to climate change.

    bought more tanks for water harvesting, after a long dry spell and lack of water have become a challenging factor in farming. now the ongoing rains have made you be able to harvest water any way possible
