This Chicken Farm Is a Farmer’s Dream
A year ago, some of our earliest hatchery eggs came from Big Green Farm in Gede, Watamu. Today we’re back—walking the quiet lanes, checking the ponds, and admiring the coconut trees and healthy chickens. If you love calm, organised farms with great ambience, this one’s special.
We also share where we’ve been since morning (Cairo Farm) and why these visits matter to Afrifama’s hatchery journey, learning, sourcing, and building relationships that help us hatch better, stronger chicks back in Mariakani.
