The Farm
Turning Point have established a Community Farm in Kinangop, a fertile area in the foothills of the Aberdare mountains, 120km from Nairobi. The community has space for 12 of the single-mothers with their children at one time, and the farm provides for all their needs. Nine mothers moved up to Kinangop with their children in August 2007, they have learnt how to farm, how to plan ahead for the different seasons and sell their crops at the market. The mothers are working towards living independently, that is no longer needing support from an organisation such as Turning Point. We hope to follow these stages to reach independence:
