✨ Meet Janki, an inspiring TKS community leader from Central-Eastern India. Janki's journey with #Terviva began in December 2023, when she overcame challenges like limited mobility by securing a scooter to travel around 10 villages. Her dedication paid off as she achieved the highest performance among all TKS by successfully procuring 8MT of beans in the 2024 harvest season. 🌱 As a mother of two, she's not only supporting her family but also empowering other women collectors, building trust, and spreading knowledge about #pongamia. Janki is a true role model, proving that with determination and a shared vision, we can create a brighter, sustainable future together 🌳 #TKSImpact #SustainableAgriculture #WomeninAg #ClimateAction #SocialImpact

The potential that pongamia has in our regenerative agriculture practices is truly remarkable. ✨ We want to introduce you to the power of pongamia and the many ways that it contributes to a more sustainable planet. Did you know that pongamia improves water quality and requires less water usage? 💧 It's perfectly suited to thrive in a climate-changing world because it is also salt tolerant, drought tolerant ☀️ and flood tolerant. 🌊 🌱 #Pongamia #WaterConservation #SustainableFarming #Terviva #ClimateSolutions

In Hawaiʻi, agroforestry and sustainable land stewardship have been used for generations to nurture the land and support biodiversity. On Oʻahu’s North Shore, pongamia trees revitalize the land, improving soil health and water quality while native pollinators thrive on pongamia flowers. Trees are irrigated by natural rainwater and our beans are then hand harvested and dried in the sun. By integrating regenerative agricultural practices, we can create a thriving, resilient ecosystem that honors the past while cultivating a greener future🌱 #IndigenouspPeoplesDay #RegenerativeAgriculture #Pongamia #Terviva #ClimateSolutions #SoilHealth
