Our vision for this farm is remarkable on so many levels, and it thrives with multitudinous potentials that are born out of a noble philosophy of sustainable existence.
It is organic and applies the principles of eco-friendliness, farming without pesticides or fertilizers, reducing carbon emissions by harnassing local natural resources and renewable energies (including hydro-power), and reducing household waste through composting, and re-cycling and re-using.
It is essential here to form a symbiotic relationship with the environment, which becomes something of an art requiring creativity, intuition and an emotional connection with Mother Earth.
The general focus is towards developing the land in a sustainable manner fostering a harmony with the local environment, and employing the principles learned from nature. In the long run, this sustainable agro-forestry aims to manage about 100 acres of land. On the slopes, terraces are being created to control soil erosion and irrigation. Along the edges various trees are being planted to bond with roots in order to strengthen the edges, and also to provide shade.
As we increase our control over the fertile land, we will divide it into to sectors which will play an important role when rotating the use of the land, providing pastures for livestock, or land for growing herbs.
Stop the termination notice to our agreement, from a state government.
We are about to loose our place, where we have dedicated out time, effort and significant private resource to practice sustainability and subsistence, from a state government.
We are still full of hope, with our head high and haven't given up to fight for the cause, regardless the odds. PLEASE, SEND US YOUR GOOD INTENTION, A PRAYER OR SHOW YOUR SUPPORT IN ANY WAY YOU CAN. WE WILL BE FIGHTING TILL THE LAST TREE IS STANDING. So far, we haven't achieved much, only a slap on wrist to the culprits in form of a fine for open burning we reported.
PLEASE SIGN THE PETITION.
Thanks
