AHARA
WE REJUVENATE SOIL
WE DIVERSIFY CROPS
PROGRAMS & PROJECTS
AHARA is transforming livelihoods for tribal women farmers by helping them shift to natural farming and diversify into high value crops. With traditional farming offering low returns, this transition empowers women with sustainable income opportunities while restoring soil health. By eliminating harmful chemicals, promoting indigenous farming wisdom, and ensuring direct market access, AHARA enables farmers to earn more, gain financial independence, and secure a better future for their families
Innovative Aroma Forest
AHARA’s Aroma Forestry Model follows a canopy-based approach, integrating aromatic and medicinal plants at multiple layers to help farmers earn a steady income year-round. The three-layer canopy model—trees, shrubs, and grasses—mimics a natural forest, optimizing sunlight, space, and nutrients. This multi-tiered system maximizes land use, enhances biodiversity, and protects farmers from climate risks. By cultivating high-value crops across canopy levels, farmers ensure ecological balance, sustainable livelihoods, and long-term resilience while transforming their land into thriving, biodiverse forests.

Haritshala, AHARA’s bio-resource centre, is a dedicated initiative to promote natural and regenerative farming by equipping farmers with essential skills, resources, and market access. It serves as a one-stop hub offering hands-on training, demonstration farms, and access to bio-inputs such as indigenous seeds, bio-fertilizers, and natural pest control solutions. The centre focuses on soil health restoration, water conservation, and climate-resilient practices, helping farmers reduce chemical dependency while improving productivity. Through community-led initiatives, market linkages, and a farmer resource library, Haritshala fosters self-reliant farming communities, ensuring long-term sustainability and better livelihoods for small farmers.
