About the Camp
F19 – Josphat Kiprotich Twei Farm, Kamasha, Kenya
Nestled in the highlands of Kamasha at about 2,200 meters altitude, this farm enjoys alternating sunshine and mist — ideal for potato development. Annual rainfall averages close to 1,000 mm, supporting healthy, high-starch harvests. Josphat Twei’s farm strengthens KATA’s network through sustainable production and dedication to community empowerment.
h farm contributes to the mission of “KATA Potatoes – The Fuel of Champions,” cultivating nutrient-rich Shangi potatoes that nourish both athletes and the communities around them.
Situated between 1,800 and 2,800 meters in altitude, these farms thrive in regions known for their cool temperatures, fertile volcanic soils, and dependable rainfall averaging 900–1,200 mm per year.
This natural balance makes Kenya’s highlands among the most ideal environments in the world for both potato cultivation and distance-runner development.
Every KATA farm not only grows potatoes but also supports a local KATA Running Camp, forming a self-sustaining system where agriculture and athletics work hand in hand.
Together, these farms provide both the fuel and the foundation for the next generation of world-class champions.
