Drought is raging in Kenya and with food prices hitting the roof urban families are suffering as well. So i'm really happy that i can share my mango harvest with thousands of school children thanks to Food Banking Kenya who came down to the farm today
Our Agricultural Recovery program at Kinyaga in Kirinyaga has not only turned fruitful but borne healthy and nutritious -4tonnes of mangoes in supplementing our feeding programs. Thank you Wangu Mwangi for supporting this project in increasing food supply to the vulnerable.
So heartwarming to see some of the mangoes we picked on Saturday being delivered to students at Githogoro informal settlement in Nairobi - one of many supplied by Food Banking Kenya school feeding programme. Keep up the great work! x.com/foodbankingke/…

Great panel discussions about #foodsecurity at the launch of the blind spot by Route to Food. "We need to LOCALIZE our food systems to ensure food sustainability"
I really like this quote which is particularly poignant at a time when the interests behind political protests are increasingly blurred. Looking forward to two days of engagement with County Government 047 leadership on how to bridge this disconnect. tmg-thinktank.com/events/the-inf…
Entering 4th night without power from fallen power lines in the Kinyaga/Bypass ( near Kagio in County Government of Kirinyaga ). Kenya Power customer care nonchalantly informs me 'we're chasing the contractor - lets see what happens tomorrow.' Best motivation to install my own solar microgrid
