Tamarind Valley Collective is a pioneering project started in 2017 the aim of which is to bring together 40 families to live regeneratively on 70 acres of land and collectively work towards water management, soil restoration, large-scale reforestation as well as the agroforestry to provide for their food needs. One of our first design projects, we have worked here on the zoning and masterplan and guided the implementation of earthworks, food forests and living fences.
