Rigathi Gachagua, former Deputy President of Kenya, visited the AfriThrive Cultural Farm in Poolesville, Maryland, where the Kenyan couple, Charles and Truphena Choti, cultivate traditional African vegetables.

• The farm grows a variety of traditional vegetables such as managu, mrenda, and misheveve, attracting thousands of visitors including non-Kenyans.
• Gachagua praised the Chotis for preserving African cultural heritage abroad and encouraged the Kenyan community in the US to support their initiative.
• The farm not only provides food but also helps Africans reconnect with their roots, reinforcing their cultural identity in a foreign land.
