Vermi-composting at Chitvan, Kanha




In effort to go completely green another step taken by Chitvan, Kanha, is Vermicomposting. It has helped reduce the waste flow to landfills. All vegetable and fruit peels, tea bags, grains, rinsed egg shells, leaves and grass clippings, basically all kitchen and garden waste, are dumped in a special corner which have earthworms to digest organic wastes and convert the same into high quality compost. This compost is being used by us in organic farming. It not only helps in our farms but Organic farming is also a big step to combat global warming, as this is living in a way that ensures Earth is a flourishing, healthy planet indefinitely. This means drastically reducing pollution and waste—and aiming to eliminate them—and cutting way down on our use of natural resources and greenhouse gas emissions.
