Welcome to Sababisha! In this episode, I (Chelsea) take the reins solo as I chat with Jessey Njau, the brilliant mind behind Zawadi Farm at Downsview Park. Jessey shares his remarkable journey from growing up in Kenya to building a sustainable farming operation here in Canada. Starting his career during the tech industry’s biggest advancements, Jessey eventually left the fast-paced world of technology to pursue his passion for food and farming.
We explore how his Kenyan roots, love for local, healthy food, and dedication to sustainability shaped his path, as well as the challenges and triumphs he’s faced in transitioning from tech to agriculture. Jessey’s story is one of resilience, innovation, and purpose, offering valuable lessons for anyone following their dreams or navigating big life changes. Tune in for an inspiring conversation about his journey from Kenya to Canada, and from tech to the farm.
