An Indian “Weltacker”

Edible Routes Foundation (ERF) established a world farm in Delhi a few years ago. Edible Routes Foundation (ERF) works at the intersection of ecological restoration and community development by regenerating landscapes, developing knowledge about local indigenous species and building ecologically aware communities.

An experimental Indian garden was created at Edible Routes’ Amarkanan farm in Chhatarpur, New Delhi. An Indian field grew here on 1200 m² and demonstrated the current cultivation in India. Unfortunately, the Global Field has been closed again due to low visits during the Corona period – but it could start again soon.

ERF is part of Edible Routes, one of the largest organic farming organizations in India. Edible Routes offers a wide range of services with the aim of bringing food closer to people. A particular focus is on feeding urban populations, as their food is often grown far away from their homes. That is why Edible Routes has made it its mission to teach people to grow their own food according to the principles of natural agriculture. The organization also establishes kitchen gardens in various landscapes in urban areas of India. This, combined with knowledge dissemination through webinars, workshops and field work, makes Edible Routes a one-stop shop for anyone interested in creating local, organic food systems.
