PermoAfrica runs integrated permaculture demonstration gardens, fishpond aquaponics systems, biogas units, herbal medicine gardens, and tree nurseries. We also conduct ecological Bible teachings that connect faith with stewardship of creation. We are currently running the “Better Foods, Better Future” campaign to scale up food security and regenerative agriculture to reach 300000 farmers in 5,000 villages across East Africa.

PermoAfrica Training Centre is a community-based permaculture and sustainability education initiative rooted in Homa Bay County, western Kenya. Founded in 2019, the Centre works with smallholder farmers, youth, women, and vulnerable families to co-create practical solutions for food justice, environmental restoration, and local livelihoods.

Guided by the principles of the Transition movement, we foster resilience from the ground up — helping communities regenerate their soils, strengthen local economies, and rediscover their capacity for collaboration and care.

Our hands-on training programs include permaculture design, water harvesting, keyhole gardens, aquaponics, composting, herbal medicine, renewable energy, and eco-sanitation. We also integrate faith-based ecological education, connecting spiritual values with stewardship of creation.

Through the “Better Foods, Better Future” campaign, we are mobilizing communities across Kenya and East Africa to restore degraded land, promote seed sovereignty, and build inclusive, sustainable food systems.

PermoAfrica is part of a growing grassroots movement in Africa that believes in healing both people and the planet — nurturing hope, dignity, and self-reliance for all.
