Description

Experience rural Kumaon through a visit to a working village farm near Ranikhet. Meet a local host, explore terraced fields and learn how families cultivate crops in the Himalayan foothills. Depending on the farm and season, you may observe sowing, weeding, harvesting, vegetable cultivation or fruit growing.
