ABOUT FARM STAY
|
At
Farm, we welcome all who care for the environment, who wish to
participate and be a part of the growth of the community, be a part of the learning process.
Our world is an ever expanding circle of awareness, join us as we awaken to the ecological concerns around us. Share our
experiences as new insights and learning sensitise us to the world, the
earth, the sky, trees, animals.
There is an ecological world of
relationships, the people who become our mentors, teaching us through
example. We in turn have become the support others hold on to as they seek to
rehabilitate themselves. This ecological environment made of friends,
mentors and fellow travellers, creates the well-being we experience as
we find our place in the cosmos.
We invite you to visit, participate, teach,
learn and become a part of this ecology.
Cost: Rs.1750/- per person per day which includes everything other
than travel to and from the farm
Farm is home to
the community residents.It is not a hotel or a tourist resort hence we do
not know how to put a price on it.The cottages have been built with our own
resources and manpower, which is difficult to quantify.We do need
an income and therefore appreciate a donation. Our guests also often find it difficult to put
a monetary value...hence as a guideline we recommend an
amount of Rs.1750/- per person per day which includes everything other
than travel to and from the farm. This is essentially to cover our
costs.
What can you do
there
If you are looking for activity,
there is plenty to do on the farm … as a designer, an educator, a farm
hand…or even as an architect or a carpenter. It is a great place for urban children to see and participate in
an alternate life.If you wish to just come for a quiet retreat, that’s fine as well.There is a fort on a
hill(probably from the Mughal period) just 3 km from the farm. It is a great place to go and explore.

How to get there
The farm is 70km from Gurgaon,
towards Jaipur. The nearest town is Bhiwadi. There are no public
transports which go up to the farm. You can either travel in your own
car (we will give you a route map or you can follow us) or you can reach Gurgaon
and then go in our Qualis which usually goes to the farm every Saturday
morning and returns Sunday evening. The third option is to hire a taxi
from Gurgaon which costs 2000/-Rs for same day return.
