When Smart Harvest team arrives, we find a group of women weaving sisal into neat baskets. The women from Kithangani village in Chuka-Igambang’ombe constituency in Tharaka Nithi county have discovered how to make extra cash from processed sisal.
“We were once poor and depended on relief food for survival but now, we can stand on own feet thanks to this sisal processing machines,” says the group’s chairlady Mary Gakii.
