Organic Farm Tours

If you want to get close to nature, nothing really gets you closer than a tour of our organic farms. As a pioneer in organic farm tours, the trip is committed to “providing a tranquil insight into life on a settler farm”.

When you’re not out exploring the tea farms, and vegetable gardens, or wandering in the indigenous forest, you’re enjoying lunch at the farmhouse with your host.

“Come and enjoy a lunchtime tour of the farm with us… Arrive at 11 am and over a cup of tea or coffee the history of the farm and process of making tea is informally explained, followed by an opportunity to see tea in the field”.

By staying at this Farm Stay, you will get to experience the countryside in a very different way. Besides peace and quiet, you will also get to hear the sounds of nature, the moos of calves, and catch the morning sun.

Of late there’s a growing appreciation of the disconnect between urban and countryside life. Visiting or staying on a farm provides some kind of a remedy to that. Many farms in Kenya offers you a taste of rural life and an understanding of where your food comes from. This is through their farm tours and farm vacations – farm stays.

Some of these farms give you an opportunity to get hands-on and close to nature. If you fancy the experience, then you will have a fun time at the farm. You’ll feed calves, collect eggs, tend the vegetable garden, cook organic meals, make cheese, or even pick tea.

Production of organic food in Kenya is still relatively little but increasing fast. Over 182,000 hectares of land are under organic management, which accounts for 0.69% of the total agricultural area in Kenya. Globally organic markets are growing. Consumers are more and more interested in healthy and sustainably produced food and expenditures on organic food are rising faster than on non-organic food. These trends are common for the export market, and also for the local market. There is an increase in local organic farmer markets as well as designated organic sections within super markets. Many consider organic agriculture an interesting option for smallholder farmers in Africa because it offers a unique combination of low inputs, environmental conservation and it provides access to premium price markets.
