- When Manisha and her husband acquired a piece of land in the hope to grow clean food and harvest freshwater, they did not know that their lives would change forever, in more ways than one. They established Aanandaa Permaculture Farm as an example of working with nature to create a self-sustaining & regenerative ecosystem. They challenged the local wisdom of chemical farming and convinced their team to adopt a chemical-free path to build a food forest. Watch how Manisha explains the details of converting a barren piece of land into a thriving ecosystem, and why she believes that permaculture is the pathway to self-sustenance and harmony. Manisha Lath Gupta is a Permaculturist, Entrepreneur and a former Marketer and Banker. She is currently the founder of Aanandaa Permaculture Farms - where she employs the sustainable practices of permaculture to reconnect with and give back to nature.
She is also the Co-Founder of Mojarto.com an online portal for artists, galleries, and collectors of Indian contemporary art to buy, sell and exhibit their work. In her earlier roles, Manisha has held crucial leadership roles at Uber, Clix Capital and Axis Bank This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.

Wow! This is Aanandaa Permaculture Farm, her family farm. Do give us a look if you found this talk interesting!
She deserves this stage 👌
Thank you Mam, I just saw Aanadaa's video day before yesterday. And today I am seeing you in TED. You definately deserved this and much more stages like this to bring back the roots of Agriculture in the ecosystem to enhance the lifestyle of Farmers and lastly we as consumers. We have to live with Nature to live healthy, to age gracefully and with a longer good Life.
Namaskar🙏
I'm literally impressed...Soon gonna learn and implement it ...That's awesome 💜.
You are doing great 😉
It's really inspiring and practical..!!!👌 I'm a part of eco-crew in my clg and I'll do my best in promoting permaculture!!! thank you so much!!😊wanna visit the farm place andn truly wanna see everyplace as such!!!🙏😁
"If health is wealth, then growing your own food is gold." True words.
Wow! I am very impressed. I have been doing permaculture on my farm here in East Tennessee for the last 25 years. I live alone but I produce so much food with just myself as labor. I share with many people and seniors during this pandemic that are unable to get out frequently to shop. A permaculture gardening is a love of mine and also a hobby. I preserve and dehydrate and process much of the food that I eat all year. I am also a vegetarian which I learned to be vegetarian by living in Tamil Nadu South India back in the early 70s. I worked in a small village working with Farmers on teaching methods of increasing their rice production with the use of chemicals and fertilizers. My God, I have come a long way since. I go back to India on occasion because the people in that Village became my family that I love so dearly. Even today, here in Tennessee I still cook and eat mostly South Indian vegetarian food. Thank you for your work. This was an incredible video. Please remain safe and healthy you and your family during this pandemic.
Do you know about any permaculture farms that produce grains in a way that can compete with normal production methods ..
It's heartwarming to see someone from Tennessee talking about our very own Tamilnadu and our culture...
@@adreamingboy7488 why do we need to produce grains only? They have poor nutrirional value

Thank you, you've given me new hope. I always thought farmers needed a large team.
This TED Talk brought tears of promise and blew my heart space wide open. I Know I AM on the right path. 💕🌈💕
Good Luck, wishing you best of luck.
BRILLIANT! My wish is that a new earth emerges where humankind realizes that we are totally interdependent upon the earth - plants AND animals.✌Homesteads and small scale will be the new revolution for all globally.
I'm starting architecture school soon and permaculture is a big inspiration for me. I want every home and community to have permaculture at its center. We have to live in nature, in balance-not try to tame it to bend to our will.
The earth will become heaven if everyone will do This is very inspiring talk thank u didi
I am so happy that people are still spreading the P word! My urban food forest in Portland Oregon is now over 10 years old and producing well enough and educating those who come through. My homestead in the city (6 years) has provided us with fruit, vegetables, berries and nuts, our chickens are happy fertilizing our compost heap and giving us eggs. It is a beautiful paradigm shift to experience and it makes me so happy to see others going through it too!!
Beautiful and inspiring talk! I live in Spain and am in the process of buying an old farm for the purpose of setting up a permaculture system.
Wish you success.
All the best!
Very good.
Please give us an update! I was in Peñiscola last week and saw some terraced hills there, am very curious how your project is going. Wish you much success
Omg does this lady teach a permaculture course? I could learn from her all day. Do well explained, thank you 🙏🏽
It's not how profiled our living is , it's all about how purified our living , thanku mam , u are my inspiration ...
Well said Sai Ram ji!
"Adopt a land" was something which I totally agree.... Huge Respect for you Mam..
I wish to follow your footprints
Stupendous work Manisha. Would certainly like to see it all in person.
Hi I am from Malta. Having been following your channel for a long time now. Very inspiring family and person. I want to do the same thing in my country where permaculture is almost non existing. Great talk as well. :) keep the videos coming :)
"...our farmers are dependent on their next crop for their livelihood" that's so true and I want to thank you for mentioning this. I have been there when my father was earning our whole livelihood through farming. Only way to come out of this is by having at least one person in farmer's family to have job which can support family and agriculture. Only then we will be able to break this chain. Government will never help us on this as it is busy in procuring large farms for corporate who can make government free of its responsibilities towards farmers
Nothing is more important than Changing what we eat and how it’s grown - great talk!!
Our wishes first, you've made understand that farming isn't only for the layman, as could see the frontier of permaculture with dedication and manifestation of dreams into reality. More ahead madam ji.
Amazing, have just started gardening and composting on my terrace and balconies since the lockdown. Just looking at everything green every morning makes me so happy.
Manisha ji - I have exactly the same experience word to word. You are truly inspirational.
What a great testimony, They have too much for teaching us. Thanks!!
I was spellbounded while watching this video....Mam you and team are doing not only a great job but also sharing your steps...that's why I like your newly founded channel so much....I am almost halfway of watching all the videos of your channel....and will soon watch it all and read all the articles shared by ananda in every platform.... finding your channel is one of the greatest blessings in my life
Thank You Aananda.
Amazing, outstanding, fabulous
Great work man. I m engineer but a son of the farmer and going to apply these things in our farm
Why farmer not adopting parmaculture? Excellent answer given by madam. 🙏
Is it like super productive and economical ??
If you actually listen to the whole video she explained it
@@adreamingboy7488 not really it is productive for small farms but for large scale it ain't that practical and labour cost increases. It's best suitable for small farmers and part-time agriculture geeks
If you want to be rich, then you can't go with Permaculture and even farming. Permaculture gives you enough to feed stomach with luxurious food but to fullfil luxurious desires
There is such common sense and infectious enthusiasm in building this permaculture farm! Thought for the present, faith in building a better future for future generations! Good experience on the way to the realization of the idea! They planted good seeds and achieved a good harvest! Be healthy, family, let your farm prosper, which is inevitable with the good care you show!
very proud of India recognition of climate change and taking action to save the environment and provide for us again
I could feel the breaze in your farm from the words itself... I alternatively recommend you to write lyrics for a song.. U r so blessed madam...
Good to see manisha jee of ananda is sharing her experience on famous platforms like TEDx
Pure Inspiration, No other words.
I have been following ananda farm from long time now.. I feel motivated to see all there journey videos
New Earth - global localization and decentralization of power - just people living in reciprocity with Mother Earth ❤️❤️ abundance and security for all
Thank you and bless your work 🙏
Best Permaculture journey I have ever seen.
Greetings from the LooseNatural farm in Andalusia Spain where we currently live a permaculture life. Thank you for sharing this video
Greetings!
What a great story of awakening, persistence and preservation. So proud of you Manisha & Agam!
All your words straight from the heart.
Left me teary eyed.
Super! Congratulations on such a polished and inspiring TED Talk.
This should be the topic in everyone's mind and heart including government's
Maam this is my dream , permaculture farming . very inspiring !!
You are inspiring woman. I am inspired by namalvar and after that because of you I am thinking to do my part of natural farming
Excellent very inspiring, encouraging & Sustainable. Our farmers need a culture change with Permaculture. Let us make our society healthy body with positive & active mind in nation building.
Beautifully put Ma'am, this is just perfect.
Perfectly clearing ALL the "con's" the general public usually have in mind and the reasons why they don't get into agriculture.
We're all educated enough to be Urban Farmers 😁
Thank you.
Lovely. A talk on permaculture that drives you to draw parallels with life. How to remain stoic, steadfast in one's belief and overcome challenges.
Great video! Very inspiring... Taking care of a piece of land is to take care of Earth and all the living beings on it. Cultivate and be vegan is the way!
Fantastically inspiring talk and story. The urban folk must lead the permaculture revolution!
I have been dreaming of permaculture for many years now.. I wish I could start soon
me too some day in future .
Me too
You can! Learn more about Permaculture, it is scalable, start very small :-)
You can start on a balcony or even on a windowsill :)
You can! Permaculture isn't just farms, it's building communities and relationships too
Financing these farms is the most important ,I am a NRI returned farmer after 6years still struggling.
I'm waiting for this
Mam I'm following since last 6 months
You nailed it madam
I'm happy for you👌👌👌👌👍👍👍👍💐💐💐💐💐
Excellent speech madam. Inspiring and educating. A success story well articulated. Thanks for sharing.
This is so inspirational... And it's only because of people like you there's hope for a resurgent India we all look forward to... In the near future
And for yours dedication towards agriculture / permaculture👏👏
Dear Manischa, what a wonderful talk. You have been an inspiraion to me from the very first post on LinkedIN with the first movie on Ananda farm. I dearly hope to be able to visit one day. Meanwhile, we are 1 year into buildng our ecoystem near Pune and going through all the same experiences as you are... I hope and pray that more and more and more people follow and convert their land. Love and abundance!
Manisha Ji Good to hear your speech in TEDx as well, appreciate your way of Organic Farming.. Happy Farming 🙏
Brilliant talk and inspiring lifestyle. Hope millions of people watch this and get inspired
Hardworking, powerful women
Inspirational, Goosebumps you are so great you have all the eligibilities to become a true agricultural minister
It's great to know and making us aware that we owe so much from mother earth and it's very gentle way of giving back. Very well explained.
Outstanding effort to live in a sane way - hopefully your level of conciousness will in time spread across the globe. Thank you !
Best video i watched this month, mam you demonstrate the whole process beautifully... Kudos and thank you for making a difference and inspiring others...🙏
Excellent speech. One Manisha is not enough for our country. Planting the trees and mulching are the perfect ideas for the successful farming. Mulches break down over years and contribute to soil health. Thanks Manisha.
I like the way she explains problems faced my her with a smile on her face.
dear mam (manisha guptaji ), your work and videos are so much inspriring. your speech is very clear and understanding. you have achieved much success in permaculture. great job.
Thank you!
I thoroughly enjoyed every second of this video
my takeaway- slow consumption.
thank you for what you are doing ms lath.
i need more time in my work life, to make sure i can sustain my interest in a better way of life- farming and an animal sanctuary (hopefully create jobs too)
but for some time now, slow consumption and being mindful of how i live my life has been my way of giving thanks to mother earth and the universe.
Manisha ji your work has inspired many people to grow their own food.
Quite Interesting....it's Need of the hour....... Because of More Contaminated food and Air Polution.... Being close to Nature, through Permaculture... Life will be Undoubtedly Beautiful and Delighted.....
Very well presentation mam , even you are not from Agri back ground,you learnt and had success .We are farmers, as you ended with the main points that all farmers are not able to leave their past waste farming methods.With little patience we can reach it.Thank you very much.
Possibly the most inspiring video I’ve seen on RUclips in all of 2020! Thank you!!! I dream of doing this in West Africa.
Beautiful Lesson !! Thanks for sharing such an amazing experience 🙏
Thanks for everything you’re doing Manisha. 🙏
Just came across your video with which I can relate myself and am sure I day I will follow your footsteps. It's my dream
I really enjoyed this presentation. Thank you madam, you are a truly inspiration!
Your words inspired me to believe in myself more as a natural Farmer. Thank you !
Amsolutly amazing to see what they archived in only 10years!
This gives us all hope that it might not be to late to transform to a more natural and cultural (social) live with the planet!
I wish to have a similar thing in my life.
Wonderful presentation, kleco (thank you)
Congratulations madam for your relentless efforts
Had heard of organic farming, but permaculture seems a more holistic approach to farming with an entire ecosystem sustaining itself. Govt must encourage both farmers and common folks to engage in permaculture, which will make us live healthier lives, generate our own food without pesticides, and reduce our carbon footprint too. PM Modi should push such concepts as part of his Aatma Nirbhar Bharat campaign.
🙏🙏 great madam..felt happy for yours confidence and Hardwork
Passion ,patience and money required
This was a really great talk. Sleep deprived, would have more to say on it, but it's definitely a favorite far as whats out there. Could imagine if all the resources and space wasted to have the fast food infrastructure had instead been used to grow a food forest if community gardens, what kind of culture we might of had. The US would've been a haven.
Really inspiring ...and a great thought.Thanks for sharing 👍
Wonderful and so well narrated. What a life we made ourselves. Thanks very much
Wow. Amazing Talk. It’s Soothing and Peaceful.
Thanks for sharing important tips about mulching, avoiding pests, saving water.
Very inspiring madam, I have decided to takeup permaculture farming though I am 63 years old.
But how can this old practice of our nation reach the farmers. We keep talking about such things only in cities and in English where most people can only listen but zero implementation. Excellently presented madam🙏
only govt have such human resources and money to take this practice in local language to farmers
Amazing speech. U said it all in few words. Inspiring.
The idea is nicely put forth.. thank you mam..
Its so nice to see mam on this stage...
Bravo!!
Goose bumps and tingles down my spine as I heard you speak.
I loved the way you expressed it in simple language. Looking forward to setup one in near future ❤️
A good source of inspiration, thanks Manisha for sharing such great experience
Very motivating and reassuring. Dovetails into our plans and is a lead to obtain guidance. Thank you 🙏
Ma'am i search every day on RUclips about permaculture after following ur Channel for 4 months. I watch everything that is there. Also congratulations for the ted talk, may u get more such opportunities so that more people get inspired by sustainable living. Ananda is an idol.
Excellent presentation and very valuable information.
Great and inspiring speech by Manisha. This is the need of hour to every body to start farming or adopt farming for quality and healthy food. Her farm is replication of best practices of Natural and Permaculture system.
Gorgeous to see you conduct yourself so well mam...❤️🔥💯
Permaculture is future of farming
I doubt it
wonderful clear presentation of healthy values and farming practices!
Soooo Beautifully presented! Proud of you Manisha! I had been greatly inspired by Nammalvars talks on permaculture i think around 2006 or 2007. Later i was happy to see Aranyas development, a couple in Goa and then Aananda's. In between i used to check out Rob Greenfield and others. But recently my urgency has increased by Aanandas consistent posts. Now I am waiting impatiently to get a piece of land to rejuvenate. If not for this Covid, we would be out there now searching for land. And they are so expensive too....But I believe everything has its own time!
Absolutely, thanks for watching. Do share it with like-minded people
I watched this video not once but repeated multiple times select portions of it.
Am not able to hold myself in relating our life.. we live in, with your permaculture movement.
Certain statements made by you especially with respect to weeds relates to negative thoughts in our blind mind viz. material desire, anger, greed etc.
Like Soil (mitti) comprises of many living organisms/ bacterias, our Body (also mitti) is made of microscopic life organic forms.
To ensure soil (body) is always fertile (positive vibes & spirit) and weeds do not grow (negativity avoided), it took ~12 years for a beautiful permaculture farm to come up.
Complete physiological/ mental changes and firm establishment of new good habits also takes 12 years in a body as mentioned in various spiritual books.
Isn't life similar like farm, wherein if we allow anything and everything to grow would become like jungle unless we control, give positive feed and grow consciously to convert into a beautiful farm/ life.
Your systematic planning, constant efforts with positive mindset have always be an inspiration for many of us.
such a beautiful analogy🙏🙏
But nothing wrong with a jungle in Mother Earth.. Than a farm a jungle is more healthy for her
The land available under the wild is very less compared to the land under humans.. It is time to give back the land to the wild
beautiful words
Beautiful refection.... God bless you
