Filo-Xenos: Friend of strangers
“I was a stranger and you welcomed me.”
Lesvos is the temporary dwelling place of displaced people seeking refuge from over 40 nations since 2015. And home to millions of olive trees of the native 'Adramitiani' variety for centuries.
Tens of thousands of refugees in an island economy in urgent need of temporary workers.
The Filo-Xenos Story
Filo-Xenos helps local Greek farmers to work collaboratively and welcome this influx of “strangers”, whilst developing a sustainable future for their quality product. We invest 100% of profits to grow this social enterprise, providing seasonal work for refugees, year on year.
We believe that displaced people can bring prosperity to local communities in places like Lesvos.
