The Experience

we are starting a special mushroom farming. This is special in the sense that mushroom can be grown in a log of wood. The mushroom is called 'shiitake mushroom' . We have a plan to start it in 2500 logs. Anyone interested can help us to drill the log, sow the mushroom seed, water the seeds as well as take care of the mushroom farming. Likewise we also have a plan to begin bee farming. We practice organic farming no chemical fertilizers.

I loved my stay here! It was shorter than I hoped- only 5 days- but I immediately felt like family! Such a special place!

My stay at the farm was truly one I will never forget. I felt apart of the family from day one, I felt so looked after by the entire family- sharing every meal together. We were blessed with the most beautiful home cooked meals everyday, that we helped prepare the fresh veggies for, all from the farm cooked with love by Goma and Aamaa. The farm work was enjoyable, it was so special to watch the shiitake mushrooms growing during my stay. I would recommend this experience to anyone, especially for your first time in Nepal, to immerse in the local culture with this beautiful family.

Kamal and his family were fantastic hosts, they truly welcomed me as one of their own that it was difficult when it came time to leave. I appreciate the guidance they gave me and the way Kamal and Goma thoughtfully answered my questions (which were many!) The work was not difficult and I learned so much in the time I was there. The views and location are fantastic, I will never forget the hike and camping trip up the mountain. The food is also incredible and some of my favourite moments are of preparing and enjoying the food together. I highly recommend this beautiful experience!

I really recommend Kamal's place! Kamal and his family are so kind and so welcoming. They take really good care of their volunteers. The food was healthy and delicious, the place was absolutely beautiful and so peaceful, and the work was easy and fun. I wish I could've stayed longer, but even in the short time I was there I learned a lot about traditional beekeeping, growing mushrooms, raising cows, and also got to enjoy some trekking in the forest around the property and learned a lot about Nepalese culture. They have the best milk and honey ever too! Thank you so much for the experience!! <3
