Kudumbam.
Kudumbam is a democratic, secular and non-profit voluntary organization involved in the rural development with specific focus on facilitating sustainable agriculture alternatives.
Kudumbam has been working for the revival of organic farming procedures by converting farmers into resource farmers who join hands as stake holders and make sustainable development possible in villages.
Working as a catalyst for development at the farmer-community level, Kudumbam strives to achieve the wildest possible impact targeting those areas with greatest unmet needs in organic agriculture, farming and sustainable livelihood.
It has been functioning since 1982.
