The people behind Harvesting for Good EA
Harvesting for Good East Africa is a Kenyan owned regenerative agriculture, landscape and sustainability enterprise established in 2019.
Today, we bring together design, regen-agriculture, training and implementation to support projects from the initial idea through to establishment and follow up.
We also create opportunities for people we train to build practical experience and participate in larger projects, helping to develop local skills and create pathways into employment.
How we create change
We believe lasting change happens when good design is combined with practical knowledge, local ownership and ongoing support.
We work with people and organisations to assess challenges, design appropriate systems, build practical skills, support implementation and strengthen local capacity.
Our goal is not simply to create a garden or deliver a training session. It is to leave people with the knowledge, systems and confidence to continue, adapt and build on the work
