Visit from the UK

Our UK representative (Baba Mzungu) will be visiting Kisii in November for a month.

He will be bringing clothes and toys that have been donated to the Twiga Centre by people in the UK. In fact, so much has been donated that he cannot bring all of it in one trip!

The Twiga plot will be re-seeded to replace the vegetables that were lost during our mini-drought. We will be trying different vegetables, as well as making sure there is a good supply of sukuma kale.

But the mini-drought has shown us that we can no longer rely on the regular rainfall that the Kisii region has, until now, enjoyed, so we will be looking at ways to harvest water from the roof of the Twiga Hut, so that there will always be water for the crops.
