Positive news from Auroville farmers

 

Auroville farmers reported that despite the recent setbacks, they sent 3,128 kilos of 46 different vegetables, 3,301 kilos of 24 sorts of fruit, 19,764 eggs, 6,327 litres of milk, 846 kilos of various sorts of rice and 327 kg of polished and unpolished varagu (the latter procured from the bioregion and processed in Auroville) to FoodLink in March to be distributed to the Auroville community. The farmers hope in their next month report to include produce from Auroville farms distributed through other channels, “some of which spreads the blessings from our farms to Puducherry and beyond.”
