Vedic Eco Village is seeking people to participate in daily building, farm and food preparation. Campground, outdoor kitchen & solar shower facilities are under construction. Burned trees from our forest are milled for ecovillage building materials. Our building techniques improve and evolve with every ecovillage project.
Our traditional Vedic mud-stoves (chulha) used for cooking and heating are available in multiple locations. We have successfully implemented these sparkless chulha stoves, combining rocket mass heater technology and traditional Vedic cooking methods. These stoves are essential for safely cooking with fire in the summertime, as we are in a characteristically dry and high fire risk area.
Future Development Plans
As in the original Vrindavan, cows play a central role in the lives of the Brajavasis, similarly, we plan to focus all the activities within our Vedic Eco Village around cows and agriculture.
The cows in Saranagati would benefit from a heated winter barn. We are building a new goshala to host cows during cold days. The Goshala will be the first structure built in the VeV colony. Goshala project page
Our mission is to manifest the vision of Varnasrama villages, as proposed by Srila Prabhupada and our Acharyas.
We offer deeper insights into the fundamental values upheld in the Vedic culture, namely the importance of cows, farming and vedic knowledge.
