About us
Our Story
We Focus on Developing Sustainable, Community-Centred Farming Solutions.
Kiasili Farm is a digital marketplace that connects farmers and consumers to indigenous foods, offering a cost-effective and climate-friendly platform.
The company addresses Kenya’s food security needs while empowering women and youth in agrifood systems, working to close gender and wage gaps in the sector. By focusing on women-led households and addressing youth unemployment, Kiasili strengthens food resilience and reduces poverty. Additionally, the Kiasili Nature initiative promotes climate action among its producers and consumers, primarily benefiting women in indigenous communities and Kenyan youth
Why Kiasili
Our Approach.
At Kiasili, we believe that achieving food security requires embracing traditional knowledge and practices that promote mental, physical, social, and environmental health. Our holistic approach recognizes that eating patterns are shaped by complex food acquisition and distribution systems, offering health benefits that extend beyond basic nutrition.
Promoting Agrobiodiversity: We focus on mainstreaming agrobiodiversity to create sustainable and equitable systems for Indigenous and Traditional Food Crops (ITFCs).
Changing Consumption Patterns: In response to emerging health risks, Kenyans are increasingly recognizing ITFCs as valuable commodities that contribute to better health and well-being.
Nutritional and Economic Benefits: ITFCs not only provide exceptional nutritional value but also play a crucial role in enhancing food security and generating income. By improving community nutrition, their production fosters sustainable enterprises for farmers and retailers alike..
