Mountain View Eco Farm – Together For The Earth

About MVEF

About MVEF

Mountain View Eco-Farm (MVEF) was established with the objective to create an eco-friendly environment and a learning centre for visitors and to set an exemple in terms of organic farming for sustainable and healthy food production. Our board members come from many different countries, as well as our volunteers.

It is vital for Nepal to learn about, and commit to, organic farming as a route to sustainable food production for the future. Our goal is to establish an organic (eco) farm close to an urban population as an educational and training center, Mountain View Eco Farm.

What Our Precious Volunteers / Visitors Say About Us

Joshika & Sahana

I spent 5 weeks at MVEF with Govinda and Chetana, along with my friend Sahana. Here, I got the chance to learn a great deal about organic farming and sustainable agriculture, but also hear about Govinda’s vision for educating his community about a sustainable way of supporting one’s family without having to leave Nepal.

Benjamin Humphrey (Ben)

Due to the Nepal fuel crisis, I arrived at Mountain View Eco Farm (MVEF) in the late afternoon an hour or so from sundown. My first impression was the incredible view from the hilltop location of MVEF. Standing on the lawn adjacent to the farmhouse, the view included the glaciated Annapurna Mountain Range turning a beautiful shade of orange and below, Begnas lake nestled among the foothills of the Himalaya.

Blair Sando

My ten-week visit to Nepal was nothing short of remarkable … and I have Mountain View Eco Farm to thank for that. Though my journey to Nepal was not easy, after a few short days I began to really dive in to my role on the farm. I began to learn more about this world and about myself than I ever thought I could.
