Mazingira Day was a landmark event for Elgon Kenya, showcasing the company’s unwavering commitment to environmental sustainability. The day began with a lively discussion on the popular Inooro FM show, hosted by Nyoks wa Kata and Jeff Kuria, where Elgon Kenya’s team spoke about the importance of drip irrigation in conserving water and promoting sustainable farming practices.
From the airwaves, the action moved to the University of Nairobi (UoN) for a tree-planting ceremony at the Elgon Kenya Forest, reinforcing the company’s dedication to reforestation and environmental preservation. The event, held at the Wangari Maathai Institute for Peace & Environment Studies, was graced by prominent guests, including the Africa Green Foundation and presided over by the Chief of Defense Forces, General Kahariri CBS. Equity Bank sponsored the tree seedlings, while Elgon Kenya provided the essential fertilizers, further supporting the initiative.
The event culminated in a standing ovation from the guest of honor, recognizing Elgon Kenya’s significant contributions to environmental conservation and sustainability. This recognition highlighted the company’s leading role in fostering a greener future, aligning with their broader mission to safeguard the environment through innovative agricultural solutions.
