Guests, if they choose to, are welcome to culvate in the farm for the food that they consume and acvely parcipate in the communal programs set up by the company such as Adopt A Tree Community Program, Bush and Hill Hiking and theCycleTourismPackages.
As a company, Kijiji Village ltd is fairly young. It was recently registered and in-cooperated in May 2022, and barely 10 months since the project was launched the company is already geared up to introduce a desnaon that promises a unique opportunity to its clients to explore the country's natural beauty while experiencing alternave living in its simplest form. At least 90 percent of the clients and guests that have already interacted with Kijiji Villagehaveleposiveremarks,withquitean impressivetrack-recordofrepeatcustomers.
Kijiji Village is an integral project that currently accommodates mulple facilies including a restaurant area with a sing capacity of 45 people; a professional Kitchen and bakery equipped to serve the restaurant and events of up to 100 plus people; lodging facilies with a total of 7 fully furnished rooms (3 single rooms and 4 double rooms) each with a work space and a total of 9 beds, with inbuilt and spacious modern toilets and bathrooms; the glamorous camp site is designated a space of about 43, 000 2 which is almost 1 acre, to offer our clients a sense of privacy and space; the recreaonal grounds currently cover an area of about 16, 000 2 and are ideal for birthdays, weddings and wedding recepons and cooperate funcons.

Presently, 80 % of the preliminary work of the first phase of Kijiji's product and service development is already done, with much investment h av i n g b e e n c h a n n e l l e d t o establishing the above listed facilies and amenies. In addion of which there is also landscaping work that kicked off a couple of years ago with clearing of the bushes and planng of trees and grass. More than 10 000 seedlings of a different variees of trees have been planted in Kijiji Village to restore life to a land that was once barren and dry Kijiji Village as a desnaon, aims to be a premier opon especially for weddings and camping events, as well as a favourite stop over for travellers ploughing the
Nairobi-Mombasa Road, either for business or leisure travellers-vising the aracon sites that are moderately accessible from Emali including the Amboseli, Tsavo East and Tsavo west Naonal Parks, Mt Kilimanjaro andKenya'sCoastalBelt.
The greatest risks associated with Kijiji today are the prevalent dry weather condions, which renders some of the business's crucial acviestobeingbriefandseasonal,andthe access road which somemes hinders clients, especially those who wish to arrive onfoot,fromreachingthedesnaondueto its excessive dusty condions. Clients that callintobookforeventsand/or accommodaon are advised accordingly, but the company is working on concrete steps to migatetheserisks.
The company's proprietors and CEOs, Mrs.
Maria Antoniea P. and Mr. Phillip Wekesa, started workingtogether morethan 12 years ago in a foundaon that they jointly establishedcalledHuipalasinNairobi,Kenya, whose primary aim over the years has been to provide educaon scholarships that have benefied more than 200 children, and facilitate a resource centre, a posive and interacve meeng space for young people in Korogocho. A percentage of the proceeds that are realized from the company is channelled back to the sustainability of the foundaon's programs that are aimed at promonghumanenrichment.Theirmission withKijijiistoachieveoperaonalexcellence andachievesustainability
