Transform Lives with Starfysh
Established in 2010, Starfysh is a grassroots movement fueled by the belief that we can turn desperate poverty in La Gonave, Haiti, into a story of RESILIENCE AND HOPE. We demonstrate the love of Christ by providing essentials like food, healthcare, and education, ensuring that every family has access to a WEATHER-TIGHT HOME, A GARDEN, AND A DIGNIFIED WAY TO SUPPORT THEMSELVES.

Sustainable agriculture is a critical cornerstone of revitalizing La Gonave. Our mission goes beyond cultivation; it encompasses FOSTERING HOPE, DIGNITY, AND SELF SUFFICIENCY among every family on the island. Through our initiatives, we aim to empower local farmers with RESOURCES (SEEDS, SEEDLINGS, TOOLS) AND KNOWLEDGE, cultivating a thriving agricultural ecosystem that feeds families, strengthens livelihoods, and restores the island back to her lush, green beginnings.

Agriculture on La Gonave faces numerous challenges, including POOR SOIL QUALITY, LIMITED ACCESS TO RESOURCES, AND THE IMPACTS OF CLIMATE CHANGE. Many families rely on subsistence farming, often struggling with inadequate knowledge and minimal yields, which leads to food insecurity. Furthermore, the LACK OF INFRASTRUCTURE AND ACCESS TO MARKETS COMPLICATES their journeys toward economic independence.

Starfysh is committed to being at the forefront of change. By providing access to HIGH-QUALITY SEEDS, RESILIENT TREES, AND LIVESTOCK, we help cultivate a sustainable agricultural landscape. Our training programs equip farmers with EFFECTIVE FARMING TECHNIQUES, leading to higher garden and farm productivity and fostering a sense of pride and ownership in their work. Through community collaboration and improvements in infrastructure, we are transforming agricultural practices on La Gonave, creating a RIPPLE EFFECT OF HOPE AND DIGNITY THAT UPLIFTS FAMILIES AND STRENGTHENS THEIR FUTURES.

Life Garden is more than just a place to grow crops; it serves as a VIBRANT EDUCATIONAL CENTER where children from all over La Gonave come for hands-on field trips. These visits offer students an opportunity to learn about SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE, NUTRITION, AND THE IMPORTANCE OF CULTIVATING THE LAND. By engaging with Life Garden, students experience firsthand the transformative power of agriculture, fostering a connection to the land and inspiring a new generation of community leaders.

Life Garden aims to provide the SEEDLINGS AND KNOW-HOW that will help local farmers flourish and village residents establish home gardens.

Life Garden is helping residents living along the once barren Salt Flats grow home gardens filled with NUTRITIOUS, LIFE-SUSTAINING FOOD.

Starfysh is more than a movement—it’s a mission to restore dignity and hope through sustainable agriculture, food security, and economic opportunity. With your support, we can equip farmers with the tools and training they need to feed their families, strengthen their communities, and build a future full of promise.
