Agroecology farm in Nepal
Chhahari Farm
Chhahari is a working farm in Nepal shaped around agroecology: living soil, biodiversity, moisture, livestock-integrated farming, learning, and the people who keep the farm moving.
Three ways agroecology works here
Science, practice, and movement.
As a Science
Experimenting, learning and knowledge sharing
We use the farm as a place to test, demonstrate and learn—exploring better ways to grow food, manage inputs, conserve resources, and build healthy soils.
As a Practice
Farming with nature, not against it
We bring together diverse crops, livestock, soil, water, and farm resources to create an integrated, low-waste farming system that works with the ecology of the place.
As a Movement
Taking agroecology beyond the farm
We connect people through events, training, campaigns, and advocacy—sharing knowledge and building collective action for more resilient and just food systems.
What we grow
Food shaped by the seasons.
From leafy greens and root crops to fruits, herbs, and perennial plants, our farm grows a diverse mix of food throughout the year.

Community and circular economy
Connecting local food and the people behind it.
Beyond what we grow ourselves, we work with local producers to create shorter, more direct connections between farms, products, and people.

Local producers
Food and goods sourced through relationships with producers in our community.
02
Source stories
Knowing where food comes from—and the people who grow and make it.

Shorter routes
Simple, direct connections between producers and buyers, with fewer steps in between.
