About Me

I was born in Kendu Bay in a family of six siblings my father was a farmer,i went to Otok primary school and later on joined Otok Secondary and after wards joined Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and technology where I studied agriculture,meet my husband in the year 2000 and got married then and since then I settled in Komarock estate am a mother of two sons and am employed at the Kenya Research Institute I started my farming business out of the love and passion I have in Agriculture,during my free time I like playing with my boys football and I also like traveling.

My Business

My business is basically agriculture I grow crops for food and also for selling,i have a piece of land that I plant food crops like maize and beans and i also plant sukumawiki or you may call it Kale the crops I grow are very marketable and that's among my reasons for the attachment i have for my line of business since I don't need to depend on my job or my husband,from the money i get from my business I cost share with my husband to meet our house hold needs and the rest I save.

Loan Proposal

I need to buy farming equipment worth ksh15,000 I will use the money from Zidisha and add to my savings the equipments I need to buy include Jembe,panga/machetti rakes,ploughing tools among other such kind of tools these will allow my business to run smooth since I wont be needing to borrow tools for the people I hire to work in my farm I will save more and thus will be in a good position to re-pay my loans well and improve my business.
