OKIRI FARM
Growing Skills | Growing Food | Growing Opportunity.
Okiri Farm is designed to equip young people with practical skills in food production, nutrition, and income generation.
The farm operates as both a kitchen garden and a learning space, where young people engage directly in growing vegetables while building knowledge they can apply in their daily lives.
Okiri Farm integrates integrating food systems education with hands on experience. Young people are involved at every stage, from preparing the soil to harvesting.
This approach allows the young people to understand not only how food is grown, but also its role in health, livelihoods, and community well being.
Program Focus Areas
- Food Systems Education – We introduce participants to the basics of sustainable food production. They learn how vegetables are grown, maintained, and harvested within a small scale setting.
- Nutrition and Healthy Living – The farm creates space for conversations around diet and health. Participants connect what they grow with what they eat, strengthening their understanding of balanced nutrition.
- Economic Empowerment – Produce from the farm is sold within the community. Through this process, participants are exposed to basic business practices, including pricing, customer interaction, and handling sales
Okiri Farm produces a variety of vegetables through its kitchen garden including; Kales (Sukuma Wiki), Cowpeas (Kunde), Jute Mallow (Mrenda), Lemon Grass, Spinach and Coriander (Dhania)
These vegetables are sold locally, contributing to the program’s sustainability while providing participants with real world exposure to small scale agribusiness. Revenue generated supports ongoing program activities and expansion of the farm.
Through Okiri Farm, we are creating a practical entry point for young people to engage with agriculture, nutrition, and entrepreneurship. Participants leave with skills they can use at home, in their communities, or as a starting point for income generating activities.
Every purchase contributes to the continuation and growth of the program.
