FROM BARREN TO BOUNTIFUL: THE KILIFI ROCKY MIRACLE LAND THAT SHAPPED JEFF'S FARMING TRIUMPH.

Описание: Five years ago, many people thought Jeff Birya — popularly known as “Kasisi” — had made a costly mistake.
He bought two acres of rocky land at an abandoned stone quarry in Mashamba Village, Msabaha, Kilifi County, with one bold dream: to farm. Even his own family doubted the decision, with his wife questioning how crops could ever grow on such unforgiving land.
But armed with determination, passion for agriculture, and skills he acquired while studying Agriculture at Ribe High School in the 1990s, Jeff refused to give up.
What followed was a patient and deliberate land restoration journey. Stone by stone, season by season, Jeff rehabilitated the degraded quarry, improving soil quality and introducing sustainable farming practices.
Today, the once abandoned quarry has been transformed into a thriving agricultural hub, home to:
• Bananas 🍌
• Oranges 🍊
• Sugarcane 🌾
• Pawpaws
• Amaranthas
• Kales
• Okra
• And other vegetables
From land many had written off, Jeff now earns steady income, supports his family, and inspires a new generation of farmers.
His story is living proof that farming is possible anywhere with the right mindset, knowledge, and consistency.
