We carried out several tests when buildings the fence using different ecological materials (bamboos), which proved unsuccessful due to bad weather and violent wind.
We then opted for more sustainable materials, which required significant funds, and a longer construction time... Finally we managed to complete...
I want to congratulate Moses Kikassa, my son, soon to be building engineer, who was the mastermind of this work, as well as his entire team !
