Did you know that Bungoma County lies in the far west of Kenya and borders Uganda in the Mt Elgon area? Bungoma’s altitude around the mountain stands at 4,321 metres before dropping to the fertile flatlands at 1,385 metres. The waters of River Nzoia, which flows through the county, ensure that Bungoma has one of the best watered soils in the country. This makes Bungoma a suitable place for agriculture.
