Ssn 3 Ep 4 - Greenthing Kenya

In this episode, we listen to Nelly Gesare, founder GreenthingKenya. Nelly doubles down as a Kenyan eco-entrepreneur, and sustainability educator. In 2019, she launched Greenthing, a social enterprise that transforms glass and textile waste into sustainable, everyday products. Under her leadership, Greenthing has grown into a hub of green innovation—running Kenya’s first woman-owned glass-blowing studio in 30 years and a solar-powered textileupcycling station. Nelly champions community empowerment by partnering with women waste pickers and proving that sustainability can be practical, inclusive, and impactful.
