Climate-Smart Urban Farming & Circular Agriculture/Poultry Farming
Program Overview:
We are redefining farming within urban and resource-constrained settings by introducing climate-smart, space-efficient, and environmentally conscious agricultural practices.
Our approach demonstrates that even in limited spaces, communities can produce nutritious food, generate income, and contribute to environmental sustainability.
What this looks like in practice:
- Vertical and container gardening to maximize small spaces and increase yield
- Multi-layered cropping systems combining tomatoes, onions, indigenous vegetables (mboga), and fruits
- Sack gardens and compact growing systems suitable for urban households
- Use of recycled materials such as jerrycans and repurposed containers
- Application of organic manure and chemical-free inputs.
Circular & regenerative approach:
- Repurposing waste materials into productive farming solutions
- Promoting environmentally safe practices that protect soil and water systems
- Encouraging low-cost, replicable models for long-term sustainability
Why it matters:
- Enables food production in limited urban spaces
- Improves household nutrition and food security
- Creates income opportunities through surplus production
- Builds climate resilience in vulnerable communities
Through our demo farm, we inform, inspire, and involve, equipping women and girls with practical skills they can replicate and scale within their communities.
Nutritious Value-Added Products:
We transform local produce into high-quality, health-conscious products that support both income and community wellness.Production of natural peanut butter with no additives, or preservatives
- Promotion of clean, nutritious food alternatives
- Market linkages to expand access and income opportunities
- This approach merges nutrition, health, and entrepreneurship into one sustainable solution.
Poultry farming:
- We integrate poultry farming as a sustainable livelihood and nutrition strategy.
- Small-scale poultry rearing for household consumption and income
- Skills training on poultry management and sustainability
- Strengthening household food security and diversified income streams.
