  Description

  I am Esther, I have a 3 acre farm deep in the countryside situated in Kitui county near Kyawea forest.
  I started working on it during covid . I grow local vegetables to sell to the locals and this helps keep the farm running . It still has a lot to be done and I need help . It's a beautiful place nice for walks , bird watching , and very peaceful. the nearest town is like 30 mins. Want to learn about other cultures and give your expertise to the farm or the locals you are most welcome
  I would love help with making compost, January harvesting bean, and maize end of February. if you have any knowledge of permaculture farming. I also would like to plant more trees. There is monkeys, squirrels and some birds who destroy the crops so we keep watch but we don't kill them. It will be a nice experience and I'm sure you will love it.
  I also need help with building a septic tank and has an interest in biogas.
  There will be other opportunities to get involved in the community, teaching at a local school or life skills to young men and women in the community but that depends on what others interests you have when in Kenya .
