Description
I am an animal lover, social entrepreneur and a music producer transitioning towards living on my off grid vegan permaculture forest farm near Mandangad in Maharashtra. I have a few rescued dogs. I am also in the process of setting up a social enterprise which aims to create more awareness about sustainability. I intend to set up my farm as a showcase for sustainability.
As of now, the farm is in early stages of being set up. I have built a natural house using mud and stone. I am using solar panels to power devices and for lights at night. The nearest village settlement is about a 1.5 kilometers away. The area abundant with nature's beauty in form of mountain, forests, river and waterfalls.
I am looking for volunteers who can help me with eco construction, rain water harvesting, tropical food forest, soil building, permaculture vegetable garden, data collection / research, videos, photos, DIY eco projects etc. Additionally, I need help with taking care of my rescued dogs.
***IMP*** I am a vegan and will be able to provide vegan food only. No smoking / no alcohol / no drugs.
