Voi Sisal Estate is located near the township of Voi in the Taita-Taveta District. It specializes mainly to production of sisal fiber and farming of pineapples.
There are two semi autobiographical books written about the life on the estate. They are On A Plantation in Kenya (later re-titled Red Soils of Tsavo) written by M G. Visram and its sequel Beyond The Baobab Tree.
Famous quotes containing the word estate:
“Never let the estate decrease in your hands. It is only by such resolutions as that that English noblemen and English gentlemen can preserve their country. I cannot bear to see property changing hands.”
—Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)
