Who We Are

We are a registered NGO dealing with women smallholder farmers.  We offer training on updated farming practices that link up with the current technologies and innovations that are environmentally friendly.  Our main objective is to support and help realize Food and Nutrition Security as one of the contents of the Big Four Agenda through empowering women in Agriculture and Agribusiness practices which can help them not only be food secure but also improve their economic status, impacting the community positively.

According to the National Organic Standards Board (NOSB), organic crop farming is an ecological production management system that promotes and enhances biodiversity, biological cycles, and soil biological activity. It is based on minimal use of off-farm inputs and management practices that restore, maintain, and enhance ecological harmony. A major characteristic of organic agriculture is farming without synthetic pesticides and conventional fertilizers.

AWADI Kenya seeks to minimize the cost of inputs but maximize the farm produce output and to empower consumers to adopt healthy lifestyles, gain access to safe food consumption, and change production systems. We address critical issues around food safety, industrial agriculture, genetic engineering, corporate accountability, Fair Trade, environmental sustainability, pesticide use, and other food- agriculture- health –environment.
