Bara Mangwa

The Farmhouse: This is a non-profitable project that is dedicated to the people who like to travel into the heart of Nature, and the community people who are directly involved in both good and adverse effects of community tourism. It is one way of creating economic opportunities for conservation of the natural resources and wildlife; it is also creating awareness among the people to protect nature to maintain a balanced ecosystem.
The farmhouse started in the year 2005, when a few like minded people came to visit the Bara Mangwa village. Subsequently, in few years of hard work with the community people an organic farming center is established. Few other activities like animal husbandry, yoga and martial art center, a village school and a small unit of health center are also being run by the farmhouse. But the splendid thing is its panoramic perspective of the hills and river. That at once enthralls the travellers.
This rural community in and around the farmhouse is an added attraction for the nature and adventure lovers. For whom the vista has been an ideal place to enjoy the rural life in Himalayan Kingdom. The farmhouse is dedicated to serve you to inherit the Himalayan Home Stay with unforgettable hospitality. The spectacular view of river Tista encircled by Kalimpong and Sikkim hills will certainly seize your eyes like a magnet. Simple but essential facilities are offered such as running water and regular cleaning. One will be served food four times a day. The farmhouse has its own cultivated regular crops and various seasonal vegetables. Also some seasonal fruits are produced in the project area. The farm has a poultry, a dairy and a small goat house.
The farmhouse is yet to be further developed. We welcome your new conceptual suggestions to give the farm an added boost up. This project needs your support to enable promises to fulfillment. Here is something you can do to improve the life condition of many of our less fortunate brethren in a meaningful and positive way. We await your valuable inputs and active involvement.
