Ongoing Projects
Serene Eco Village is dedicated to sustainable living and environmental stewardship through a variety of impactful projects, from eco-friendly building practices to community-driven conservation efforts. We invite like-minded individuals to join us in creating a greener future, whether through volunteering, collaboration, or simply experiencing our sustainable lifestyle. Together, we can make a positive impact on the planet.
Vanarai Project
- Afforestation has been our priority and Serene Vanarai is an initiative to achieve this goal. Serene Vanarai is a two-acre land where we are planting various native trees. This project is run by Sachin and Saee Bapat, the community members of Serene. Being passionate about planting trees and eager to share the experience and happiness they get from planting the trees, made them think of inviting visitors and the bigger Serene family to get their hands dirty along with them. People can come and explore the plantation, adopt a tree, and be a part of the activities on a weekly basis or during the events too.
In the Jungles of Serene
- Serene is a hotspot for rich flora and fauna. One can witness various birds, animals, medicinal and herbal plants, wild vegetables, trees, insects, reptiles, flowers, fungi and so much more in just a small piece of land. As the knowledge about this flora and fauna which was earlier, commonly known to all, is somewhat vanishing due to increasing urbanization and modernization, a need arises to conserve and create awareness of the flora and fauna we are into. Serene is the right platform to learn more about the nature and natural resources available to us. This project is run by Mansi and Aditi, who are the members of Serene community and who are passionate about documenting the rich biodiversity available at Serene.
Dhaara
- It takes a village to raise a child! Each person, each family, each household, each community, and each village is unique. We are living in unique times, and a unique age. Our children have unique needs. The human community at Serene includes Children, young adults, grown-ups, and the elderly. The foundation of Serene Eco-village is to evolve as a life-long learning community. Dhara envisages facilitating the Serene community to become a “life-long learning” We aim to teach everyone (including children) how to learn joyfully. Become a lifelong learner for whom learning is a reward in itself.
Serene Circus
- Some members of the Serene community meet every month for an overnight gathering of conversations and fun. The purpose is to connect, share and know what all has been happening in each other's lives. We also discussion about the ongoing projects each of have been busy with. This gathering is led by Rajinder Raina, one of the senior members of our community. At Serene Circus we believe that there is no ONE right way for people to live, work or play. Serene Circus is intended to be that safe and supportive space for an individual where he/she can speak, do and live the way he/she wants to without being judged or asked to conform. Serene Circus seeks to create a common space and a supportive environment for an individual where his independence is as valid, important and necessary as the tribes interdependence on each other.
MOH
- The idea of creating an organic store like MOH was to connect conscious, organic and well-meaning farmers and producers whom we know and have a relationship with, directly to our members/patrons. This project is run by the community members Nikhil and Dipika and has till date, successfully served a good number of customers within and out of Maharashtra.
