The problem
Remote tea garden communities in the Dooars face chronic food insecurity, especially when gardens close or wages stall.
Our response
Mobile food kitchens, community nourishing hubs built with worker cooperatives, seasonal feast festivals and health & nutrition education.
Who we reach
Tea garden workers and their families in the Jalpaiguri district.
How it works
