Wenashe Farm

08/06/2026

As we begin a new week, we're reflecting on how far we've come and feeling excited about where we're headed.
What started as a vision to farm sustainably and create opportunities for women in agriculture has grown into something much bigger than we imagined. Today, our hydroponic systems are producing crops, our solar system is powering sustainable operations, and our farm has become a vibrant learning hub for women agripreneurs.

But perhaps the most important thing we've built isn't the infrastructure.
It's the opportunity..... Opportunity for women to learn new skills. Opportunity to embrace climate-smart agriculture. .. Opportunity to build thriving agribusinesses and create a better future for their families and communities.

As we look across the farm today, we're reminded that every challenge, every lesson, and every milestone is a part of a much bigger journey.

And we're just getting started.

Here's to a week of growth, learning, and new possibilities.

Every transformation begins with a vision.
What started as a small family farm with a dream to produce healthy food sustainably has evolved into something far greater. Through determination, innovation, and the support of our partners, Wenashe Farms is transforming into a hub for climate-smart agriculture, learning, and women's empowerment.
These images capture the early stages of our journey—from open spaces and big dreams to laying the foundations for a future built on opportunity and innovation.

🌱 THE GREAT TRANSITION

There are moments in life when you look around and realise that a dream is slowly becoming reality.

Just a few years ago, Wenashe Farms was a small family farm with a simple but ambitious vision: to produce healthy food sustainably while creating opportunities for women and young people in our community.

Today, that vision has evolved dramatically and is taking shape in ways we could only imagine.

Through the Transitioning from Soil to Soilless Project, supported by EEP Africa, we have transformed our farm into a learning and demonstration hub where women agripreneurs are gaining practical skills in hydroponic farming, renewable energy, climate-smart agriculture, and agribusiness.

This month is especially meaningful to us as we reflect on a major milestone in our journey. In June 2025, we officially opened our doors to the inaugural cohort of women agripreneurs, marking the beginning of an exciting new chapter for Wenashe Farms.

Over the coming weeks, we invite you to journey with us as we reflect on:

🌿 The empty spaces that became growing tunnels

🌿 The challenges we have faced

🌿 The people who believed in us

🌿 The women who are now part of this transformation

🌿 The lessons we have learned—and continue to learn

🌿 The future we are building together

Thank you for being part of our story. We look forward to sharing this journey with you.

You can always tell when greenhouse preparation week has arrived…
the pace changes, the work gets heavier, and by the end of the day everyone is covered in dust, tired, and feeling it in their backs and arms.
The past couple of weeks, we took on one of the toughest and most physically demanding stages in hydroponic farming — preparing the Dutch bucket systems and filling them with grow media for the next crop cycle. Bucket after bucket, row after row….
We are incredibly proud of the ladies for pushing through the hectic schedule and achieving their target ahead of time.
Their commitment is a reminder that soilless agriculture is not just about technology — it is also about grit, discipline, and people willing to do the hard work behind the scenes.
As we step into this new week with renewed energy, we look forward to welcoming a new crop into these greenhouses and another opportunity to grow, learn, and build together.

From seed to sorting fruit… we are finally harvesting!!!

This harvest carries more than cucumbers, it carries patience, lessons learned, losses endured.

Not every fruit made it to market... some were lost along the way as we learned the discipline and precision that commercial production demands.

And now, seeing these cucumbers harvested, sorted, and finally delivered is a reminder that growth takes time — and resilience.

This is more than a delivery. It is evidence of progress, hard work, and women steadily finding their place in sustainable agriculture.

Last week, we had the privilege of hosting two important visits at Wenashe Farms — a partnership visit from Women in Agriculture Union -WAU , and a separate technical support visit from the Head Agronomist and Technical Head: Crop Protection from ETG Agri Inputs Zimbabwe.

What made these moments especially meaningful was the continued partnership and support from WAU towards the women agripreneurs in our Soil to Soilless journey. It is truly heartwarming to walk alongside these women as they begin to chart their own individual paths in climate-smart agriculture — each one contributing towards building more sustainable and resilient food systems in Zimbabwe.

The engagement with the ETG agronomy team brought valuable technical depth to our work, with practical insights around nutrient management, system optimisation, and the day-to-day discipline required in hydroponic production.

Together, these visits reflect what building Wenashe Farms is really about — not just growing crops, but building systems, strengthening people, and learning through collaboration.

We are grateful for partners and institutions that walk this journey with us, not ahead of us.

🌱 Growth is happening — quietly, steadily, intentionally.
