Happy World Environment Day!
This year’s theme is “Beat Plastic Pollution.” At iShamba, we help farmers get tips via SMS to farm smart & reduce plastic waste. Let’s protect our farms and future together! 💚
#WorldEnvironmentDay2025
By using good farming practices:
Planting cover crops, Adding compost or manure, Reducing chemical use, Rotating crops, Keeping the soil covered with mulch or plants
Why it’s great:
More food, Healthier soil, Less erosion, Stronger crops, More birds, bees & bugs (the good kind!)
Happy Madaraka Day from all of us at iShamba!
Today we celebrate the power of self-rule, the pride of being Kenyan, and the resilience of our farmers who keep this nation growing.
Let’s raise our flags high and our jembes even higher! 💪🏾🇰🇪 #MadarakaDay
Different crops love different soils! 🌽🍅🥔
Do a soil test after every 3 years to know your soil's pH and grow the best crops. A healthy soil = a better harvest!
