PREM ILLAM & THE ORGANIC FARM CONTINUE TO THRIVE!

Updated: Apr 24, 2022

In January this year, Prema Vasam and Prem Ilam celebrated another successful rice harvest at the organic farm. Just in time to celebrate this year's traditional Pongal festival!

A small group of people stand and smile in front of a large harvestor in a field. They are holding a bundle of rice plants that have already been harvested.

Selvyn Roy from Prema Vasam said

"A couple of days ago, the other portion of paddy field was harvested. It is a pleasant surprise to get a plentiful good harvest … This time, the "Mapilli Samba" rice, one of the traditional varieties, has yielded one and half ton of paddy. Though it took a longer time comparing with the other varieties, it gave a good result.

Indra and the students at Prem Ilam are looking forward to the construction of a new Dairy at Prem Illam Girls home. Site preparations are already underway, with construction to start soon.


A large backhoe is preparing the ground for the construction of a building. Two cows look on from a nearby shed.
