Emerging from the Earth was founded in 2017 by filmmakers Nitin Upadhye and Yamini Upadhye. Our primary goal is to showcase our work while also providing an online platform for our ongoing Sustainable Development initiative in the Konkan region of Maharashtra.
At Emerging from the Earth, we believe that it is our responsibility to address the challenges facing humanity today. We collaborate with local communities to produce chemical-free food using sustainable and nutritious farming methods that conserve biodiversity and preserve the Earth’s health. Our focus is on empowering local women to innovate and collaborate on these solutions in their own backyards.
To achieve this, we provide access to expert advice, institutional research findings, and knowledge on novel technologies, along with farm-produced organic fertilizers such as vermicompost and vermiculture. We also offer routine physical visits from experts at no cost to help local farmers grow food that is both ecologically sound and economically valuable. We ensure that 60-70% of the returns from our proceeds go directly to the growers, while the rest goes back into building support for the community.
Our approach is centered on the idea that genuine food sustainability can only be achieved when each participant in the food chain has serious concerns for one another and benefits from each other’s contributions. By fostering a deep sense of community and empowering individuals to take action, we are creating a movement of self-empowerment that is shining a light on human beings’ innate desire to do good, for themselves and others.
Join us in this movement towards a more sustainable and equitable future, one in which the Earth, the farmers, the animals, and everyone involved in the food chain can thrive together.
