1000 sq meter HOMA Project in MAHARASHTRA, INDIA |
Tapovan 1000 sq
meter project
Pictured is part of the 1000 sq meter kitchen garden project in Tapovan.
We are showing that large quantities of food can be grown in a small
area. The idea is that every 3 or 4 weeks some food will be harvested
from the garden as well as some income will be created. We have planted fruit trees,
vegetables and herbs. The garden is growing very well in our Tapovan
Homa atmosphere. We regularly use Homa Biosol on the garden. We are
still developing the small plot but here are some of the plants we are
growing: |

Experiences with Homa farming have
demonstrated over and over that more food can be grown in small area in
less time, free of plagues and diseases. Homa farming can easily reduce
the cost and increase the production. Homa Farming is complete by
itself but it is also compatible with any organic farming method .
