Shamba lilianza mwaka wa elfu moja mia nane themanini na tatu. Kabla ya hapo, kisiwa kililima machungwa. Ugonjwa uliua miti ya machungwa. Kwa hiyo wakulima walipanda chai badala yake. Bado wanatumia mitambo ile ile ya zamani leo.
Ndani ya kiwanda, mitambo ya zamani inasokota na kukausha majani. Wafanyakazi wanachuma majani machanga kwa mikono. Majani machanga hutoa chai bora. Hakuna dawa mbaya zinazotumika hapa.
Polly alitembea karibu na mimea ya chai. Ilinukia kama nyasi mbichi. Familia moja ya wakulima imekitunza kilima hiki kwa muda mrefu sana.
