I am Lukas Barasa ,I grew up in a humble backgrounds as both my parents were peasant farmers.I struggled through primary education and went to secondary school. At the secondary school I got interested in environment after being chosen the chair person of environment club.
After completing my secondary education.life became tough and I struggled to make end meets.I went decided to start a tree nursery to raise money for college as well as to help conserve the environment. the business had a lot of challenges but It is picking up well and I am glad to be part of the campaign.
i come from the bahayo community and we have various cultures. the most outstanding is respect for other people.
I like the environment and during my free time I spend time training youths and sensitizing them about environmental pollution and conservation.
I grow various types of trees in nurseries ,nurture them well and sell them to my esteemed customers. I always produce thousands of assorted seedling per month and sell them to schools, individuals and government agencies.
the trees are very important since the y help in conserving the environment and protecting endangered species of trees.
I choose the business because of my passion and experience in the field.
my monthly typical costs are $200 for seeds,manure and comparable bags for planting.
I use my profits to save for my university fees,and for business expansion.
Hello lenders,I am executing an expansion plan in my farm to include fruit seedlings which are on very high demand. the fruit seedling are on higher demand because they have more benefits to farmers ,other than providing wood and protecting environment they can also provides fruits to improve income.I will use the money to buy manure that I would use to plant . the seeds.Thank you in advance.
