Organic Farming
Sevalaya runs organic farms at its Kasuva centre, Tiruvallur and Thirumalaivaiyavur centre in Chengalpattu.
The farms supply fresh vegetables to the kitchen.
At Kasuva, our “Wealth From Waste” programme teaches children to live in harmony with the environment.
Degradable waste is converted into rich manure through bio-composting for use on our farms.
Biogas produced from organic waste replaces LPG use in the kitchen, demonstrating our commitment to practising sustainable living.
The farms are also supported by gaushalas that provide organic manure.
Surrounding villagers as well as school students studying in the Agriculture stream gain hands-on experience in sustainable farming techniques.
At Thirumalaivaiyavur, we have developed a Nursery and Green House where saplings of vegetables, flowering plants, and some fruit trees are grown.
