From Juja town driving towards Thika, you go down the Ndarugu river valley (where there are many machined stone cutters). While down there, look out on your left, a dirt road.

There used to be a sample "Kijito" windmill at the junction; don't know whether it is still there.

That place is in the middle of nowhere.

I wouldn't touch it with 5km pole

Is it this area?

The Bob Harries farm that I know is off the Kamwangi/Gakoe road which is fully tarmacked and is to the left just before the fly-over into Thika town. It is after Witeithie. The Bob Harries family have been growing coffee for decades on a large scale and I suspect this is the land on sale. I know the area fairly well. On the negative side, there is a high crime rate in the area.

Very sad indeed... Even the 900 acre piece in recent papers isn't very far from there. The coffee farms have been a buffer zone for criminals from both sides of highland divide. When the coffee farms go...one cant imagine what will happen. It looks like in 20 years the whole of Kiambu will be urban.

Lets look at the facts guys. I own a plot hapo nxt to bob harris and i can tell u frm xperience. Rd is dusty: true bt imewekwa murram. Its an all weather rd now. Crime: it has been a high crime area till muhoho george opened a college there and gave land for an AP camp. The camp is nxt to mangu girls/ compuera. . The land is in the middle of nowhere. 2 yrs ago, my aunt was selling 3.5 acres to me in juja farm @ 350k. Friends told me its backward, etc and adviced me to forget it. I forgot it. Last year, she sold the same land @ 1.8M. The area around bob harris is far better than juja farm the way it was. Shule ziko, rds pia, etc. Anyone with a keen eye will see Goldmine. Others will just see just the negative. Guys, the place is great. I know the area well.

Very sad indeed considering coffee cannot be grown just anywhere.

Where will Kenya generate income from in some years to come after we uproot all of our cash crops?

And for how much is the land going for? Ideas of prices around that area?

@my cool. Land not very expe there by the way. Bought 100x120 in jan this year @ 250k. Was being sold same size @ 400k last month. Water, power, etc available. Pia AP camp ipo just nearby
