Introduction:

By Sophie Onyango
They say a woman has to choose – be powerful or be feminine, be elegant or be practical, be stylish or be serious.
But I have learned that a woman doesn’t have to choose.
She can be all of it.
She can be all of herself.

Welcome to the Farmer on Heels Diaries – a space where my love for elegance meets my passion for agriculture… where a pair of heels walks confidently onto the soil… where femininity stands tall in the middle of a poultry house… and where a modern African woman leads, nurtures, builds, and blossoms.

This blog is born from the dusty mornings on the farm…
from the laughter of my team…
from the first tray of perfect yellow-yolk eggs we produced…
and from the pride I feel every time we turn chicken waste into Zari Organic Fertilizer – proof that even what’s discarded can become valuable again.

The Farmer on Heels Diaries is more than a blog.
It is a movement.
A declaration.
A celebration of women who show up fully – stylish, capable, resilient, and revolutionary.

Here, I will tell my story – not the polished version, but the real one:
the early mornings, the bold decisions, the countless lessons, the wins, the challenges, the grace, the grit, and the glow.
And I hope, with every entry, you are reminded that your dreams are valid – even the ones that look impossible, even the ones that require heels on hard ground, even the ones that lead you away from what is familiar and into what is destined.

So step with me into this world.
A world where farming is stylish.
Where leadership is feminine.
Where sustainability is elegant.
Where purpose is beautiful.
Where every woman gets to define success on her own terms.

This is the beginning.
This is my story.
This is our journey.
This is Farmer on Heels.
