Community Support

Our farming footprint is based in rural KZN, South Africa where we operate in harmony with our neighbours.
We have several farming and social initiatives where we are constantly active.

Entrepreneurship Initiatives

With the vision from our founder and director, Reverend Erlo Stegen, we developed a community nursery for avocado trees which we sell to emerging farmers at a subsidised price.

We have passed on our acquired knowledge in avocado growing to the farmers, teaching them about soil health, planting and management of orchards so that they can successfully grow their own avocado trees for their families but also as an initiative to start their own avocado growing businesses.

We buy the seeds from these farmers as rootstock for our avocado orchards. When their trees bear fruit, these farmers will be able to sell the avocadoes to Emseni to pack and sell.

Youth Conference

As Emseni Farming, we are part of a greater team that hosts thousands of children for a youth week twice a year and also assists with dishing out food, preparing accommodation, helping with activities for the sports day. Our farming efforts aim to create the means for this large event, where the children are given food, a sleeping place, hot water and biblical teaching for free.
