What you need to know:

  • Rioba retired about 10 years ago and soon embraced traditional vegetables.
  • With his wife Lilian Kwamboka, the Riobas have been growing the vegetables on two acres for the past two years.

Along the Nakuru-Nairobi highway, various traders have erected stalls selling different horticultural produce that include vegetables and fruits.

There is big business along the road as travellers normally stop and buy the produce.
