OYESKA GREENS is a start-up company. We are on a mission to make the Kenyan Coast the agricultural hub where greenhouse/open farming, technology, entrepreneurship, smart marketing, and climate-smart farming intersect to produce everlasting change.

What we do

  • We engage, inspire, mobilize, and empower smallholder farmers, enabling them to be dynamic players in agriculture.  

  • We are eradicating poverty by addressing food security one community at a time.

Why is OYESKA Important?

  • With the world population poised to increase to 9 billion by 2050, there  is an urgent need for solutions to ensure communities have access to adequate, safe, and nutritious food.
  • OYESKA Green is empowering small holder farmers so that they are able to meet their food and fiber needs. 
  • We empower women farmers
  • We increase food security
  • We Eradicate poverty 
  • We Educate farmers

Our Approach

Our goal is to create long lasting impact through Agriculture. We ensure that we involve the community before we embark on any project for greater success. Community's participation is important, since strong programs require Community approval and participation to create a sustainable project.
