Property Description: 

Tucked away in a fertile valley Krishna sanctuary is a testimony of the abundance of food mother nature can produce.

Krishna sanctuary is a 6 acre organically managed property since 2020, with at least 2 acres in a wide variety of fruits, nuts, veges, and flowers for year round supply, more and more as time progresses. The remaining area is pasture for our two friendly old house cows, some native bush and a permanent stream running down from the mountain. The property is off grid, utilizing solar and hydro electric from the stream. Water for the house and garden is from the stream. Our composting toilet system is unique, cheap and very useful. Cooking and heating is with a locally built wood stove.
