Food is Medicine 

In India, rising malnutrition rates among women and children, coupled with inadequate healthcare facilities, have significantly impacted the health standards in rural areas. Additionally, changing dietary habits and cooking methods, along with the increasing reliance on ready-made market foods, have further worsened the situation.

To address this issue, we are actively working to promote organic kitchen gardens and revive knowledge about traditional wild vegetables. Through this initiative, we inspire people to grow organic kitchen gardens throughout the year in all three seasons.

Currently, we are implementing this project in the remote village of Savala, located in the Andar Maval Taluka, working closely with 200 families under the concept of 'Nutrition is Health'.

The impact of this initiative goes far beyond improved health outcomes. We have observed positive changes such as 

  • Increased male involvement in household chores, reducing the burden on women

  • A happier family environment with stronger bonds between family members, especially mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law

  • Greater awareness and appreciation for traditional wild vegetables

  • Improved understanding of the importance of organic farming

  • Enhanced women’s leadership, with groups forming to address key issues like water scarcity

  • Encouragement of seed preservation practices

Economic empowerment for women, as many have started their own vegetable businesses through kitchen gardening

This initiative is creating a ripple effect, empowering rural communities to embrace healthier lifestyles while fostering social harmony and economic stability.
