Owsjuky (Ukrainian Овсюки ; Russian Овсюки / Owsjuki ) is a village in Hrebinka district in the central Ukrainian Oblast of Poltava on the right bank of the Hnyla Orschyzja river (about "musty Orschycja", Ukrainian Гнила Оржиця ). The distance to the district center of Hrebinka is 16 kilometers. Neighboring villages are Pokrowschtschyna, Horby, Rudka, Jablunewo, Stukaliwka and Hryhoriwka. Together with the neighboring village of Pokrovschtschyna (Покровщина) to the north upstream, it forms a district council.
The village was founded in the early 18th century by two Cossacks , the Ovsyuk brothers. From the point of view of the neighboring villages, the place was a Cossack village. Before collectivization and the famine of 1932 , the village had around 1,000 farms (approx. 5,000–6,000 inhabitants) in the early 1930s.
The village has a church, a school, a kindergarten, a house of culture and a retail store.
