Agriculture
Our gardens are grown with natural and organic methods that enhance the soil and attract the bees and butterflies that are abundant in the gardens. The farm comes full circle, using well composted manure from the cows to help create our rich garden soil. ECO-V manages 5 gardens and 3 high tunnels, which extend the growing season, providing fresh flowers and vegetables throughout much of the year.
Flowers
Our flower gardens produce thousands of flowers each year that are offered to the Deities in the temple and in festivals throughout the summer.
Garden mainstays are bright marigolds, vibrant zinnias, fragrant tuberoses, colorful dahlias, shining lilies, and large sunflowers.
Vegetables
ECO-Vrindaban’s produce is grown with natural and organic practices and is a delicious way to protect ourselves from genetically modified organisms and chemical insecticides prevalent in the American food supply. Our gardeners grow thousands of pounds of fruits and vegetables each year ranging from green beans to zucchini, heirloom tomatoes, strawberries, potatoes, winter squash, and much more.
High Tunnels
Our three high tunnels, installed in 2019, expand our flower and vegetable season into the winter months.
“Anything that is grown in the garden, that is hundred times valuable than it is purchased from the market.”
— Srila Prabhupada August 3rd 1976
