About Me

I am the third child in a family of six children. I went to Kapchit primary school In eldoret and Moi High school in Eldoret for my secondary Education.
Due to lack of money to continue my education I decided to start small scale farming so that I could raise money for fees. I started humbly through purchase of one goat for milk production.Unfortunately the goat died ,I was so much disoriented but did not give up. I did not have money to buy another goat and therefore accepted to work in a white man farm as a farm hand. I worked in various sections that gave me needed experience in livestock handling. I saved money and bought two goats that have given birth and are now six goats, i practice mixed farming and has a horticulture farm where i use the manure from the goats to plants vegetables for sale.
My county is the home to many athlete legends like Kipchoge Keino. The place is so called and the terrain and temperature are favorable for the athletes.
I do sing and dance for my church and I am the choir master. I also posses some leadership skills and I am the chairman of my youth group.

My Business

I provide vegetables and goats milk to the residents of Langas Estate. I am well known and people always visit me to pick the milk. I hardly have any surplus in the farm as the demand is very high. My five lactating goats gives me about 15 liters of milk per day and I supply milk and vegetables to hotels within the estate. I am planning to expand my farm so as to serve more clients and earn more revenues.
I choose goat farming because they are easy to manage and require small space and the revenues are good. I started horticulture farming so as to utilize manure from the goats .
my monthly revenues are $300 from the sale of milk and vegetables and my cost of running the farm per month is average $100.
I use my revenues to educate my siblings , save for farm expansion and take care of my parents.
