  • How did a homeless man in America end up owning one of the biggest organic farms in Kenya?
    Kunga Kihohia is not your ordinary farmer. Having worked in some of the biggest companies in America grossing over 5 Million shillings a year, he followed the wrong path and found himself drunk, overweight and homeless.
    But deep down, he knew the only place his life could take a different turn was his Father's homeland Kenya and so he came back determined to start a fresh.
    Today, he owns Back to Nature Organic farm in Murang'a.
    Our reporter Lynn Ngugi caught up with him and this is his story proudly brought to you by KCB Bank

    The grass is not always greener on the other side. Watching from Canada and organic food here cost an arm and a leg they feed us GMOs and all the garbage man made meats and stuff. We have such short growing season with crazy winters. My dream is to move back to Africa get a piece of land have some farm animals, fruit trees and live off the grid a self sustaining lifestyle. Life in the diaspora is not what you always thing there are so many challenges you have to overcome to make it. Kama ulikua mbuzi African usifikirie ukikuja ulaya utabadilika ukuwe ngombe utabakia tu mbuzi. Ulaya haibadilishi mutu.

Kenya great country and the best country in Africa . Black people in America have fallen apart and the system has surely destroyed once black people fall out from life the rules destroys them . Kenya great land great people great food that’s the best country to enjoy life and create massive Bussiness and I can’t wait to visit soon insha allah . This man has surely talked about USA surely as its .He really talked the American story as real and what ever he said is real and Iam so proud that he shared the life of USA . And I will never forget the idea he mention that kids should be taken back to their parents origin so they learn the real life in Africa . Thanks man
