Farm Communities

Srila Prabhupada often stated that the world's economic problems-including the food problem-could be easily solved if people simply depended upon the land and the cows. The cow supplies ample milk, butter, cheese, and yogurt, and by using the bull one can plow the fields and produce abundant grains and vegetables. From the forest one can obtain honey, nuts, and fruits. To practically demonstrate this simple truth, Srila Prabhupada organized Vedic farm communities, over thirty of which are now flourishing around the world. Visitors can taste wonderful prasadam meals prepared from healthful, natural vegetarian ingredients produced right on the farms themselves.
