About Me

I am 28 year old father of two children a Edwin and Saral aged 5 and 3 years. I went to Lukhano primary school and then joined Lukhano secondary school,I did not pass very well because most term I was send away from school due to school fees. I was determined to achieve my dreams and I therefore joined Wazalendo youth group were out team leader invited experts in various fields to train us on best agricultural practices.
After visiting a few farms and learning what young farmers were doing <i decide to practice farming but my biggest let down was start up capital. I decide to start my business with only $7 that I use to buy seeds,I always worked on the farm my self.After three months I had sold $250 and bought a few equipment and started to expand my my farm.
I am a soccer fun and I always spend my free time with friends watching football. I am also the assistant coach in our home team .
