Farmers Helping Farmers is excited to welcome a delegation of five Kenyan visitors representing the government of Meru County, the area where the P.E.I. non-profit group has worked for the last 15 years.

Several high-ranking Meru County politicians are joining her on P.E.I. including the Deputy Speaker of the Assembly, the Leader of the Majority Party, a Member of the Speakers Panel and a legal officer for Meru County.
