Empower Yourself with Mushroom Farming
A mission-driven program by the Sri Sri Institute of Agricultural Sciences & Technology Trust (SSIAST), this training empowers individuals to start mushroom cultivation using locally available agro-waste
Rooted in the vision of Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, it promotes eco-conscious, income-generating livelihoods in both rural and semi-urban regions.
It is the duty of the farming community to give healthy food to the world, and the duty of the world to ensure the prosperity of its farmers.

Grow with Purpose. Live with Peace.
Sri Sri Home Gardening is a movement to reconnect homes with health, harmony, and hands-on joy. When we grow even a single spinach plant, we grow self-reliance. When we compost, we heal the Earth.
