Are you a freshly graduated degree holder and yet unemployed? Have you considered establishing your own farming business?

Come transform you into a billionaire. Snail farming, grass—cutter farming, selected vegetables for export are what you will be exposed to for a fee
Camping
Nature is concrete illustration of the presence of a living God. It is said that the finger of God is observed in the physical creations around us like the mountains and valleys we ascend and descend in the wind that blows around us and in the air that we breath daily the presence of God goes with us in the high and low tides that come with the rising and setting of the sun. Come along the Ntiful roads and paths and experience the swift chasing of the stationary trees after your vehicle and feel the presence of God with you. Pastors, Ministers of Church, church groups, especially youth groups and the elderly are all most welcome to this camping site. Come honey moon makers, come picnic and party throwers, retreat and evangelism organizers.
