AutoPot Kenya – this thing goes all the way to the top!

Late in July the AutoPot greenhouse project nr. Siaya, Kenya received a visit from Rachel Ruto the Vice President of Kenya’s wife and her staff. Nam Oneko, our project leader, was on hand to explain the ways in which our products can be of benefit growers in the region.Rachel is a patron to many womens’ organisations and AutoPot intends to partner up with her office to bring a simple and efficient water irrigation system to villages across Kenya. The systems make such a low impact on water supply and require zero electricity so they can easily be endorsed.
