I am 36 yrs old tech enthusiast, married with two kids. I have a degree in Information Technology and work full time in a computer shop in the bustling city of Nairobi in central Kenya. As you can imagine there are very few green spaces. I am have passion for nature and animals. I try to spend as much time as I can in the country and generally appreciate a farming lifestyle and value of hard work with one's own hands.
In my spare time, I try to do a little farming here and there. I also have ambitions for livestock rearing. For this year I have ambitions to rear traditional chicken which are hardy and resistance to disease. I have recently acquired a small piece of land in the outskirts of Nairobi for this project. I have ambitions to develop it for a chicken rearing project - put up a structure and sink a well for water. Since my project location is quite close to the city, market should not be problem once i go live.
I am closer to completing purchase of materials for construction of a chicken coop to rear traditional chicken. I still require roofing corrugated sheets and for part of the wall as well as chicken wire. With the proceeds of this loan, i intend to purchase some of the roofing sheets. The price per sheet is about 8 USD, I should be able to purchase about 10 sheets. I should be ready to start construction in December.
