SHARAN

If you have eaten today, thank a farmer – was the old saying.
Now it should be If you have eaten today, double thank an organic farmer!!

That’s because he is growing high quality food for you without any chemicals added to increase and take care of his yield. He goes out of the way to do something that actually is the norm, but in today’s times has become unconventional. This not only helps you have nutritious meals, but also ensures you remain healthy, just like Mother Nature intended us to be.

So take this time out and meet Vaishali Gadgil, founder of Shashwat Organics, an ethically run social enterprise for the past 8 years. She works with close to 500 tribal and marginal farmers across India. She quit her lucrative IT career to pursue her dream of farming. She has developed her own style, through observations, experiences, understanding nature and built a curriculum for Sustainable Farming which comes from her intense farming and teaching experience. She is a big proponent of Fukuoka and our Vedic farming practices under Rishi Krishi.

Gadgil has worked extensively on the Wild/Forest foods of Sahyadri/Western Ghats with local Tribals – Katkari. She had been invited by the Central Agricultural Ministry to speak about the same. Gadgil has represented Maharashtra as a Woman Organic Farmer in the National level exhibitions conducted by the Woman and Child Welfare Ministry of India.
