Agroecology is far more than a set of sustainable agricultural practices
Agroecology puts peasants and indigenous voices at the center. It seeks to preserve biocultural diversity and strengthen resilience while challenging existing power structures in the food system.
The ever-busy schedule at the Bio-Gardening Innovations (Biogi), a hands-on farmer training centre in Elununi, Vihiga County is a clear testament of how smallholder farmers are eager to learn about techniques that can help them remain productive despite the changing climatic conditions.
According to Ferdinand Wafula, the founder and coordinator of the training centre, farmers from Vihiga, and as far as Kakamega and Nandi counties, have been streaming in every week to learn about regenerating seeds so as to maintain unique traits and adaptability to local climates, health and fertility of soil through the use of ecological farming practices, and to mingle with other farmers from different parts of the region.
“We support smallholder farmers in transitioning to ecological farming systems by employing principles of agroecology, and we teach them about designing permaculture units that are both productive and sustainable, integrating crops and vegetative cover to create resilient ecosystems,” said Wafula.
Agroecology, an approach that blends ecological science with traditional farming knowledge, is emerging as a sustainable solution to the multiple challenges faced by agriculture today—rising input costs, soil degradation, water scarcity, and growing climate risks. By reducing reliance on chemical fertilisers and pesticides, promoting crop diversity, and prioritising soil health, agroecology offers a way forward that benefits both farmers and the environment.
“Agroecology is not just about growing food; it’s about rethinking the entire food system,”

Oh! There It Is!
Of Course The MSM Like Google Maps & Wikipedia Don't Show It! Just In Case This Get's Taken Down Here's The Whole Article!
The existence or non-existence of a place called “Hawaii, Kenya” is an interesting geographic question that many people may have wondered about before.
At first glance, it may seem unlikely that such a place exists, since Hawaii and Kenya are separated by thousands of miles of ocean. However, a deeper dive reveals that there is in fact a locale in Kenya with the unusual name of “Hawaii”. Keep reading to learn all about this uniquely named village in the Kenyan countryside.
If you’re short on time, here’s a quick answer: There is indeed a small village called Hawaii located in Kenya’s Rift Valley province. It was given this name due to its physical resemblance to the Hawaiian islands.
The Origins of Hawaii, Kenya How the Village Got Its Name The name “Hawaii” may bring to mind images of beautiful beaches and tropical paradise, but did you know that there is also a village named Hawaii in Kenya? The origins of the name can be traced back to the early colonial era when British settlers arrived in the area.
The village was named after the Hawaiian Islands, which were gaining popularity at the time due to their exotic appeal.
The settlers were inspired by the natural beauty and cultural richness of Hawaii, and they wanted to bring a touch of that enchantment to their new home in Kenya. Thus, the village of Hawaii was born.
