Description
We are a small scale farm on a journey to become a food forest with a focus on natural building and crafts.
This is a small homestead, located on the fringe of western ghats and the city of Mumbai. Inspired by permaculture principles and indigenous land practices, we provide opportunities to live and experience a slower and mindful life. We, me, my partner and 2 cats are mainly focused on developing and creating this space with natural building, food forestry, creativity, care and community. -

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Guests will be learning about natural building, gardening, plant-based cooking, fermentation and participate in eco-art projects.
Apart from the farm, I really enjoy reading writing during the quiet hours. There is a collection of books on ecology, ecofeminism and local flora. There are also opportunities to go for walks, run and cycle around the village. -
Help
From deweeding, sowing, harvesting vegetables to watering and upkeep of the trees, you'd also be participating in our natural building and craft projects. Work changes with seasons and rains but an average day involves cooking, garden maintenance, composting and fixing natural buildings.
