Adventure Farm — Karen, Nairobi Book a visit

Home / Farm tours

The farm tour

A guided hour around a working farm — the animals, the shamba, the fish ponds and the compost that ties them together.

A guide leading a group around the farm.

What happens

Tours run at 10:00 and 2:00, last about an hour, and are led by one of our guides. Maximum 25 people per tour.

The animals

Cows, pigs, sheep, geese, chickens and rabbits. Children hold the rabbits, collect eggs, and learn what each animal actually eats — all of it grown here.

The fish ponds

Tilapia and catfish, the two freshwater fish most Kenyan households know. Everyone gets to throw feed, which is reliably the loudest ninety seconds of the visit.

The shamba

The vegetable beds that supply the kitchen. Depending on the season, children pick something and take it to the chef.

The compost cycle

Where the animal bedding, kitchen scraps and pond water end up, and how they come back as soil. This is the part that makes the rest make sense.

Pizza making

After the tour, children make their own pizza with the chef using vegetables they picked and cheese from Connie’s milk. It runs at 12:30 and takes 45 minutes.

KSh 800 per child. Add it when you book — we cannot usually take walk-up requests because the dough is prepared to numbers.

Private and adult tours

If you want the agronomist’s version rather than the children’s — feed formulation, stocking densities, what the compost actually costs to run — we run that on request.

Weekday mornings, minimum 6 people, KSh 2,500 each.
