In Nairobi’s Parklands estate, Meerabella Shah has turned her rooftop into a miniature garden.
Then on both sides, she has vegetable gardens with everything luscious green; a variety of herbs, carrots, swiss chard, kales, chillies, beetroot, radish, and cherry tomatoes.
To protect the plants from the sometimes unforgiving sun and mousebirds, she had put over them a green shading net and small garden umbrellas.
In Nairobi’s Kamulu, Kelvin Munyottah, a businessman and a part-time pastor, has named his outdoor space Grace Garden.
He has many herbs and spices, vegetables, fruit trees, and an exotic flower bed.
