- Our Story

Dedicated to Serving Earth and Community

Vrindavanam Forest began its noble journey in August 2019, rooted amidst the breathtaking beauty of lush green mountains and valleys. Today, it stands as an eco-sustenance project with a diverse focus, from rain harvesting to organic farming, skill development, gau shalas, and more.

We are a dedicated team of Krishna devotees, professionals from various walks of life, united by a common cause – the conservation of our Earth and the upliftment of underprivileged communities. We foster hope, instill humility, and work towards equitable progress through our projects.

Our Guiding Beacon

Our vision is to create a resilient and just world for all living beings on this planet. Towards this vision, we help communities from underdeveloped regions understand the principles of the socio-ecological system through our education. The approach is rooted in spiritual and holistic principles of ecological economics, environmental justice and sustainable development of communities.

Our Purposeful Path

Our endeavour is to be a renowned NGO in social and ecological research, education, advocacy and action. Our mission is to create awareness through education, providing training, and developing the capability among the communities to undertake nature conservation and restoration leading to sustainable development of communities and employment.
