Description
Hello to volunteers planning to come!
The project is an upcoming organic farm, a creative platform for learning by experience, a center for ecological awareness, and a space for cherishing Mother Earth. It is an attempt to demonstrate sustainable living in practice, to develop a way of growing food with a combination of ecological understanding and indigenous knowledge, and to bring people together for an exchange of ideas and practices that ensure sustainability and well-being.
We believe in a holistic mode of learning that promotes understanding and cherishing our place as a part of the greater Earth Community of soil, water, air, plants, animals, forests, and all life forms and peoples.
Only to be in nature helps in getting new ideas, to go out of stress, unwanted emotions and heal mind and body in a natural way.
We love to see new smiling faces at the farm and everyone interested in farming, living off-grid and community based is more than welcome here. We thank you for your cooperation in helping us make the farm the lovely place that it is.
Volunteers Contribution.
The contribution given by volunteer is 5$ per night. We prefer that everyone who is coming to farm, at-least stay for a month. So that it will be beneficial for both sides. If one month is not possible minimum stay is 3 weeks.
Daily visitors or group tour will be charged per decision of Farm Steward by day of interesting, contribution depends about reason of coming.
LOCATION: The farm is about four kilometers away from the nearest road head in Dogaon, a small settlement with a few roadside shops and tea-stalls, located on the Haldwani-Nainital road. Our nearest rail head is Kathgodam and Haldwani is our nearest city, 15 km away.
With love & hugs from all of us, hope to see you here soon!

Help from volunteer is much needed as it will be lot of physical work like doing Earth works in farm which includes making trenches, water harvesting by making ponds and channels at correct place. Volunteers who have done PDC are most welcome to do some practical work on our farm. It will benefit both farm and you.

We also have a lot of tasks around the living area that can be done. We are taking care of fire protection around farm like making fire lines and collecting pine cones.
We work hard but the work comes from our hearts and enjoy the effort.
We would like every volunteer bring a plant or seeds as their blueprint on farm for long time.

Every volunteer should cook on farm, we are cooking on open fire with wood, also simple food,
so volunteers can experience that type of cooking, especially Indian food and at the same time to be creative.

The farm is a unique place out of all the noises and troubles of India. Diving deep into nature and learning to use it. Also, cooking over the open fire is a great experience. Even more because Pankaj made the best sweet dish I ever had in India! You can expect something special... !

Living and working on this farm is the best form of meditation. Doing all kinds of work in the garden/forest/kitchen brings you in contact with nature and makes you so present, of yourself and everything around you. I learnt about permaculture (mulching, transplanting, composting), Indian cooking, fixing mud ovens and a sustainable lifestyle.
