Description

[edit | edit source]

Gita Nagari is America's first slaughter-free dairy farm and promotes compassion to all living beings through vegetarianism and connecting with nature. They use regenerative agricultural practices, preserve the natural forest that surrounds the farm by removing invasive species and planting natives, and have formed a variety of partnerships to further the mission. They provide wellness retreats that support one's mind, body, and spirit, and help the surrounding community by partnering with local food banks to provide nutritious produce to those in need.
