In future years, Rafiki Village could supplement its food supply with fruit from the orchard. Stephen, a USAID employee, has come to Rafiki with knowledge, skills, and the donation of a drip irrigation system for the 50 baby trees. The trees were planted in honor of Kenya's 50th birthday as a nation!
Howard is managing this project and purchasing the PVC pipe to complete it.
