Organic farming is a fad spreading quickly in cosmopolitan neighborhoods. Very few understand that this is not just a fad but a way of life. Amidst our busy weekly schedules, if you are  always on the lookout for new and creative ways to unwind over the weekend.

Then I have just the place for you !

@ Saha Astitva  you can expect your day to start with a heart breakfast like  served a super healthy vegetarian breakfast of brown rice poha, upma made out of oats and herbal tea made from jaggery, tulsi, mint leaves and lemon grass. When you are at the farm, you can either head to the lake for a dip or go in straight to ‘Pluck, Cook and Eat’.

go all out pluck what every you fancy , get toather and cook with your fiends and have a fab lunch!its an experience like none other.getting there :When you arrive in Ganeshpuri turn right out of the bus station and go straight for ~ 150m.

Saha Astitva is an organic farm set up by Daniel and Kalyani and their volunteers who work around the year with them. Set up in Ganeshpuri, which is 80kms from Bombay, the farm hosts a monthly event called ‘Pluck, Cook and Eat.’ A group of anywhere between 10 to 20 people go out into the farm, pluck whatever produce they plan on cooking and cook it along with 
their Ayurveda chef. The meal is Satvic vegetarian.

Ask people for Nityananda Mandir (or Nityananda temple).  When you arrive at the gate to the temple, immediately on your left is a small ‘pan’ kiosk and a small gate with steps leading up.  Go up the steps and straight through the bamboo gate. 

i know its a bit of a work out to get here , but the all now FORD ECO SPORT , will make its a piece of cake , the local roads can get a bit doggy at times so a 200 mm ground clearance will come in handy , not the mention the spacious interiors and expandable space comes in handy during long trips like these. the tricky roads will be easy to navigate through the smart navigator and the sync will make sure your attention stays on road inreturn will controle your call's , music, and messages for you!
