Original Report

I reside in a five acre prime farm in Kerarapon, Ngong, 6km from Karen Shopping Centre. The property fronts the all season River Mbagathi. I intend to put up greenhouses for farming Tomatoes and green peppers. However the only module banks are willing to finance is the 8 x 15m module from Amiran Kenya at a cost of 150,000ksh. One can easily construct a quality green house measuring 8 x 30m with the same amount of money. Am intrasted to partner with investors for the second option.

Getting banks to finance such projects may not be easy, but you can start by forming a group of like minded people and then enroll with Faulu Kenya (with offices in Ngong & Kiserian) or Jamii Bora(present in Ngong) then save before borrowing to start the project. Alternatively you can start growing the tomatoes and peppers under normal condition -the weather is a bit cooler before slowing constructing the greenhouse
