Siaya Town, Sigomere, Kenya
The Sigomere Organic Agriculture Program (SOAP), based in Sigomere, Kenya, is a community-driven initiative focused on promoting sustainable organic farming and improving the livelihoods of smallholder farmers. The program trains farmers in climate-smart techniques such as crop rotation, mulching, composting, intercropping, and water conservation to restore degraded soils and increase farm productivity. SOAP also encourages integrated farming systems, including traditional vegetables, fruit trees, and indigenous poultry, to diversify production and income. Through peer-to-peer knowledge sharing, mentorship, and demonstration sites, farmers gain practical skills and build local capacity. Additionally, the program supports collective marketing of produce via aggregation centers, connecting farmers to reliable markets and improving earnings. By combining ecological practices with community empowerment, SOAP enhances food security, promotes environmental conservation, and fosters sustainable rural development in Sigomere and surrounding areas.
