What we do

Disturbed with today’s trend of freezing natural resources for a pity excuse of development, a group of like-minded people accepted the challenge to preserve wildlife and its essential environment. To begin with, this group acquired a land-bank of 105 acres.
For sustenance of the project and to make it self-reliant the group started agricultural tourism activity. Hence the group is becoming active under the Title “KOKANGABHA AGRO TOURISM”.
Aims of KOKANGABHA AGRO TOURISM
– To spread the message of environment / wild life protection
– To promote agriculture and agriculture produce
– To educate the youth and empower him to attract towards agriculture
– To make organic agriculture sustainable by integration
Out of the acquired 105 acres of land, 50 acres have been developed into commercial cashew farming with drip–irrigation for more than 5000 cashew plants as a main crop along with following varieties:
– Mango Variety: Hapus, Payri, Totapuri, Rajapuri, Neelam, Ratna, Raiwal, etc.
– Coconut Variety: Banavali, TD, Orange Dwarf, etc.
– Lemon Variety: orange, sweet lime, lemon, papanas, etc.
– Local Variety: Kokum, Jackfruit, Papaya, Pineapple, Watermelon, etc
– Spices : Tirphal, Turmeric, All Spice, Jaiphal, etc
Cash Crop Variety: Sag, Bamboo, Khair, etc
In addition to the above plantations, the farm also produces seasonal vegetables like Brinjal, Tomato, Bhendi, Bottle Gourd, Chilly, Alu, Snake Gourd, Bitter Gourd, Pumpkin, Drumsticks, Radish, etc. More importantly, the group is emphasizing on the use of organic fertilizers to get better quality and hygienic products.
Kokangabha also has an aquaculture pond of the area 12000 sq ft, in which freshwater species like Rohu, Catla, and Prawns are being cultivated.

This 72-hour certification course is a participatory and dynamic learning experience; classes include in-depth permaculture theory, design methodology, design exercises and group projects. They also include a whole lot of deep questioning, laughter, and growth! The PDC curriculum delivered by P3 was developed by Bill Mollison in Australia in the 1970’s, and is today regarded as the standard in permaculture education, recognized and respected worldwide. At P3, our facilitators emphasize permaculture goes beyond gardening and agriculture. With permaculture we can design solutions for: food deserts, the heat- island effect, and mismanaged waste systems. With edible landscaping and ecological architecture we can increase the efficiency of our homes, our farms, and our communities. The solutions-based vision of permaculture practice provides is holistic and regenerative. With this course as a launching point, our students have started projects and businesses in consulting, teaching, agriculture, children’s education, urban farming, composting, and much more. in**@************re.ca

Ecotratamiento de Aguas Residuales

Agua es vida, el recurso más importante de todos. Desde la perspectiva de Sunseed como un centro educativo sobre la vida de bajo impacto nos gustarĂ­a ofrecerles un curso para aprender, profundizar e intercambiar los conocimientos teĂłricos y prácticos sobre el cuidado de agua. El curso va a estar enfocado principalmente en el tema de saneamiento ecolĂłgico de aguas residuales, cubriendo a la vez los aspectos teĂłricos de potabilizaciĂłn de agua y aprovechamiento de agua lluvia. Vamos a aprender como diseñar y construir un sistema completo de tratamiento de aguas grises a travĂ©s de la construcciĂłn de humedales artificiales de flujo subsuperficial, en cuales se trata de la utilizaciĂłn de plantas acuáticas para depurar las aguas residuales que han tenido un tratamiento primario. Los humedales artificiales son canales de gravilla sembrados con las plantas depuradoras, han sido aplicadas y debidamente reguladas en varios paĂ­ses de Europa y ofrecen una alternativa sana y segura tanto para autogestionar los recursos de agua como poder reutilizar agua tratada en un hogar. Usando herramientas como power point, videos y charlas vamos a aprender sobre el diseño y aspectos claves para tener en cuenta construyendo nuestro sistema casero. En tiempo libre vamos a divertirnos con juegos, mĂşsica y baños en una poza cercana. El curso va a estar dividido en partes teĂłricas y prácticas. La parte práctica va a incluir – Diseño de un sistema completo de tratamiento de aguas residuales – las tuberĂ­as, tratamiento primario (trampas de grasa y tanques sĂ©pticos), tratamiento secundario (Humedales Artificiales de Flujo Subsuperficial), riego con aguas grises. – ConstrucciĂłn de una trampa de grasa como el tratamiento primario – PreparaciĂłn de un humedal artificial de flujo horizontal – impermeabilizaciĂłn y conexiones. Parte teĂłrica va a cubrir la introducciĂłn a la potabilizaciĂłn de agua y aprovechamiento de agua lluvia. Para mejorar nuestra experiencia educativa vamos a definir los aspec

Convergencia de permacultura

Del 29 al 31 de agosto de 2014 se llevará acabo la Convergencia de Permacultura de América del Norte “North America Permaculture Convergence (NAPC)” con el objetivo de conectar y hacer avances en las redes norteamericanas de los profesionales de la permacultura, además se crearán oportunidades en persona y en conexiones virtuales a compartir recursos y la definición de la estructura, función y organización de nuestro grupo colectivo en movimiento. La sede de la NAPC será en “Harmony Park” que es un hermoso espacio de 40 acres (16Ha) a las orillas del lago Ginebra rodeado de árboles de roble donde se realizan eventos al aire libre, y actualmente se desarrolla como un sitio de demostración de permacultura a sólo una hora con cincuenta minutos de Minneapolis, Minnesota. El NAPC incluye talleres para todos los niveles y edades, foros abiertos, así como super-divertidas actividades prácticas y una aplicación de diseño que dejará al sitio mejor de lo que encontramos cuando llegamos (¡a veces sólo tienes que poner las manos en la tierra!). ver las paginas que están traducidas al español aquí https://docs.google.com/document/d/1p4jxVPfgInx4FTBZW-4CT-FXrhdRloZKo6lzRReZIQE/edit y http://northamericanpermaculture.org/contribute-to-the-scholarship-fund y aquí http://northamericanpermaculture.org/scholarship-recipients/ poner una solicitud de beca aquí http://northamericanpermaculture.org/apply-for-scholarship/ (La solicitud esta en ingles y si tienes dificultad hazme saber) hacer una donación para sus compañer@s https://docs.google.com/document/d/1t8PBKUvzaGcLtJCDyHWFUWYLRoIPR9tBDH5lYnunjJk/edit
