ABOUT US
KEE BOTANICAL GARDENS
KEE Botanical Gardens is a unique 15-acre natural sanctuary with over 6000 tree species, founded by Dr. Mike Mwendwa, a passionate herbal researcher, conservationist, and natural healer dedicated to restoring the power of indigenous medicine.
Our Story
Founded in 2016, the land that is now KEE Botanical Gardens was once degraded and destroyed. Through dedication, conservation, and patience, it has been restored over 10 years into a thriving natural ecosystem.
Driven by a lifelong love for nature and a deep spiritual calling, Dr. Mike Mwendwa transformed the land into a place where:
- Nature heals
- People learn
- Indigenous knowledge is preserved
Even after surviving a life-threatening attack, Dr. Mwendwa continued his mission — using his own herbal medicine to recover and strengthen his belief in natural healing.
OUR MISSION
To conserve nature, preserve indigenous medicinal trees, and provide natural, chemical-free healing solutions for humanity.
OUR VISION
To restore the value of African herbal medicine and empower communities to live in harmony with nature.
