Iam an adventure specialist who loves nature, traveling and farming.
My target area is to improve my tomato farming from the current acrage to be the next big thing.
Iam very passionate about it and have been doing it since April 2015. I have seen it grow each year and i believe with your support i can achieve much much more.
I look forward to be the biggest producer of tomatoes in my home area of Laikipia county.
Iam passionate about safari, nature and guiding for the last 19 years and that's my main source of income.
It will be great to see my dream realised with your help.
Tour guide since July 2000 & tomato farmer since April 2015.
I want to be the leading
tomatoes grower in my home area of Laikipia county.
Iam passionate about safari, nature and guiding for the last 19 years and that's my main source of income.
other than Safari and tomatoes, I do have 2 daily cows producing 20 litres of milk on a daily basis.
Iam striving to ensure that in the next 2 years max, i have my own pick up truck to transport my tomato produce to the markets instead of relying on hired transport and this will save me more money.
After asking for help from other farmers to use their water pump, sprayer pump, water pipes and so on, my plan is to become independent with my own equipment as this will make my work easier and more organised and in turn make more profit.
Sometimes it's challenging because watering is due but without my own water pipes iam made to skip that critical part of the tomato plant grown, in turn affecting the production.
