Nuvedo Circle Community
Nuvedo Community | Our Objectives
“A community is a group of people coming together towards a common objective and interest while simultaneously helping each other grow in the same”
At Nuvedo, we are building a community of farmers, home growers, and mushroom enthusiasts. Through our community, we hope to educate, bring awareness, share new technologies, and develop unique programs that can do the following for all key stakeholders:
1. Recycle agricultural waste
2. Provide additional income opportunities
3. Empowerment of women and marginalized communities
4. Spread experience and knowledge in mushroom cultivation and mycology

Nuvedo’s Community Programs
NuvoKisan | Circular Economy Cultivation
Nuvedo’s commitment to community empowerment extends beyond the innovative NuvoKisan program. In tandem with fostering mushroom cultivation for rural entrepreneurs, Nuvedo actively engages in various community activities, enriching the social fabric and ensuring holistic development. NuvoKisan is our proprietary program where we collaborate with rural entrepreneurs in order to generate additional income using technical inputs provided by us for growing mushrooms in their environment. We are designing projects with over 200 farmers in and around Bangalore where we can create a fully organized system, handholding them and ensuring a buy-back of their produce. Working closely with each entrepreneur, we are here to ensure, that a mushroom business thrives and can truly provide stable, recurring, and dignified jobs in the community.
Community Engagement Initiatives:
- Educational Workshops: Nuvedo organizes educational workshops in collaboration with local communities. These sessions aim to disseminate knowledge about mushroom cultivation, sustainable agricultural practices, and the economic benefits associated with creating circular sytems. By imparting valuable skills, Nuvedo empowers schools, universities, nature clubs and urban communities to actively participate in and benefit from the cultivation initiatives.
- Health and Nutrition Awareness: We place a strong emphasis on health and nutrition awareness of mushrooms within the communities we serve. Through workshops, seminars, and interactive sessions, we educate members on the nutritional benefits of mushrooms and encourage the integration of these wholesome ingredients into their diets. Through mushroom extracts and value-added products there are many ways to create these channels into daily life.
- Environmental Sustainability Projects: In alignment with our commitment to our larger fungal conservation ethos, we collaborate with local communities on an integrative approach surrounding mushrooms and fungi. This includes waste management programs, tree planting drives, and consultancy on farm projects. Our emphasis transcends anthropocentric practices, embracing a permaculture approach that nurtures a more sustainable and resilient environment. By intertwining the wisdom of fungi with community-driven environmental projects, Nuvedo strives to create a harmonious balance between nature and human practices.
“A circular economy (also referred to as “circularity”) is an economic system aimed at eliminating waste and the continual use of resources. Circular systems employ reuse, sharing, repair, refurbishment, remanufacturing and recycling to create a closed-loop system, minimising the use of resource inputs and the creation of waste, pollution and carbon emissions.”
