What We Grow & How We Grow It

Tunza Fresh Farms has successfully harvested its first organic crop, grown entirely without synthetic inputs. The secret to our success? Mzuri Organic Fertilizer, a powerful, eco-friendly soil enhancer made from vermicompost (nutrient-rich compost produced by earthworms).

This natural fertilizer revitalizes soil health, boosts microbial activity, and increases water retention—key ingredients for thriving crops in a changing climate. Our agroecological methods include:

Crop diversification and intercropping
Composting and organic soil management
Water conservation techniques (mulching, rainwater harvesting)
Natural pest control using companion planting
Seed saving of traditional and climate-resilient varieties

We grow a variety of traditional African crops such as amaranth, spinach, Kales, and indigenous vegetables crops like African nightshade(Managu) that are nutritionally rich, culturally significant, and well-adapted to local conditions.

A Living Lab for Learning & Innovation

Tunza isn’t just a farm, it’s a community-powered learning hub. We host:

Farmer field schools to train smallholders in organic practices
Student internships and research collaborations with universities
Workshops on agroecology, composting, and sustainable livelihoods
