Our Story

Rooted in African Tradition, Growing Sustainably

Nestled in the serene landscapes of Kobuogo Village in Ndhiwa Constituency, Homa Bay County, Makowino Eco Farm is more than a farm; it is a living celebration of African heritage, sustainable agriculture, and authentic rural experiences.

Located in the heart of Western Kenya, the farm offers visitors an opportunity to learn, experience, and reconnect with the African way of life through organic farming, indigenous knowledge, and community-centered hospitality. Our integrated farming system combines livestock rearing, poultry production, horticulture, renewable energy solutions, and farm-to-table dining to create a thriving ecosystem where nature, culture, and sustainability work in harmony.

What makes Makowino Eco Farm truly unique is its location within one of Kenya's richest cultural and ecological landscapes. The farm serves as a gateway for ecotourists, researchers, nature lovers, and cultural explorers seeking meaningful experiences beyond conventional tourism.

Visitors can easily explore some of the region's most remarkable attractions, including Ruma National Park, home to the rare roan antelope; the vast waters of Lake Victoria; the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Thim Lich Ohinga; the legendary Simbi Nyaima Crater Lake; naturally occurring hot springs; and the fascinating Wall Art Caves that preserve the area's cultural heritage.

Together, these destinations create an extraordinary tourism circuit where wildlife, history, culture, adventure, and sustainability come together. A visit to Makowino Eco Farm is therefore more than a farm experience; it is an immersive journey through the natural wonders, living traditions, and rich cultural heritage of the Lake Victoria region.

Whether you wish to enjoy fresh organic cuisine, learn sustainable farming techniques, experience agro-tourism, explore Kenya's hidden treasures, or simply reconnect with nature, Makowino Eco Farm offers a destination where agriculture, conservation, culture, and hospitality flourish together.
