Village and Goshala Manifestations

Join our efforts to build a Vedic Eco Village and manifest a self-reliant spiritual community with food sovereignty.  Farming, stewarding the forest, milling lumber, building infrastructure, farm planning and fire wood-based activities are ongoing daily.   Chulha stoves are fuelled by cow dung & wood chopped by kids.  Help manifest key projects of the VēV master plan.

We are expanding our Dharma Discovery for kids program to a Saturday event where we clean up the slash piles left behind from clear cuts of the burned forest.  With the help of local kids, we are clearing the slash piles blocking roads and pathways.  There are no logs worth milling in slash piles, but there are lots of burned standing dead trees worth milling.  We are researching and testing the best way of using deeply burned trees either for firewood or building materials.
