About Us
Who We Are
We are passionate farmers from Abadares in the central part of Kenya. Our journey began several decades ago, where we learnt small-scale avocado farming from our grandparents, who valued organic farming, keeping the soil safe. We farmed with passion, discipline and delivered the produce to our local markets.
Today, Aberdare Ridge Organic Farms is a registered AFA exporter of quality fruits to our export markets, and we are ranked as the best organic avocado exporter in Kenya. Our partnerships keep growing, and you can always be part of the story by joining us.
Our Story
Our story dates back to four decades ago, when our grandparents grew and supplied local avocados to the market. We were part of the process, and the stories they used to tell us while plucking avocados have driven our passion, leading to the birth of Aberdare Ridge Organic Farms.
From family to community, we keep expanding our partnerships to ensure growing avocados move from passion to an income-generating activity for our community.
Our Mission
To supply premium-quality avocados, grown with care from the best soils of Aberdares and its surroundings.
Our Values
- Quality First: We grow our avocados with care, pick them at the right time, and handle them carefully so that you get the quality fruit as it came from the farm.
- Sustainability: Our approach involves using farmyard manure, intercropping, and solar-powered irrigation to protect the soil, save water, and keep nature safe.
- Partnership: We have partnered with local farmers whom we train to ensure our sourced fruits are consistent in quality with the ones we grow in our farms.
- Community Empowerment: Our goal is to help the community thrive, and we do this by helping our farmers access the market as well as employing them in our farms.
