As the fight against harmful chemicals blamed for the rising chronic illnesses continues, Murang’a farmers continue to exhibit a rising thirst for organic products.
The county was the first to pass an agroecology policy and Act in 2023 that have helped spearhead activities seeking to promote the practice, which involves sustainable farming practices.
Since then, markets continue to fill up with organic produce, with special stalls in Kangari and Kirwara markets in Kigumo and Gatanga subcounties.
