We are a registered "N.G.O." (Non- Governmental Organization) operating in the mid foothill region of Nepal since 2000. "The Bamboo's Secret" is deeply motivated by the following ideals.  

First   is to actually improve the mountainous environment of Nepal.
Second   is to increase the economic livelihoods of disadvantaged, indigenous village women.
Third  is to preserve the ancient village cultures.  


Traditional village life on the steep, erosion prone hillsides of Nepal offers one of the most economically oppressed livelihoods in the world, widowed and divorced women face lives of even greater anguish. The large majority of Nepali families survive on just a few hundred dollars a year.  We are exploring and encouraging markets that will inspire the cultivation of permaculture crops, especially Bamboo and "Nitrogen- fixing" trees; we expect to aid these people, and the world where they live, in the most ecologically and culturally friendly means possible.  

The Bamboo's Secret craft training school currently offers classes to widowed and divorced women who wish to learn salable crafts that utilize bamboo.  We also have a nursery producing many varieties of bamboo starts which have been given to surrounding villagers to plant on their land.  We have transplanted thousands of plants and have covered 48 hectares (118.56 acres) of erosion threatened land as well as 2 hectares (5 acres) in actual flood plane.
