Allison in Africa

I have been to Kenya three times, totaling nearly twelve months from 2003-2008. This blog is filled with a few of my thoughts, stories and pictures from my second and third trips (January-March 2006 and May-August 2008), mainly around Kitale and Mt. Elgon in the Rift Valley Province.

Sorting seeds at VI agroforestry project, Kitale

These women were part of a group of 20 that worked for weeks to get about 200kg of seeds.  The ones that pass inspection were bought, and later given out freely to farmers to start their own personal tree nurseries.
