🌱 Support Jacob – An Organic Farmer Who Dedicated His Life to the society
Jacob, an organic farmer from Thalavaadi (near Sathyamangalam), once worked in the USA as an IT professional. In 2022, he made the courageous decision to quit his job abroad and return to India to dedicate himself fully to organic farming and social service.
Since then, he has guided farmers free of cost, spread awareness about sustainable agriculture, and built a healthier, more eco-friendly future.
