Serving cows in a mood of devotion

Our Activities

We support a wide range of activities to serve cows residing at Sri Haridāsa Niwas.

Facilitating Vraj Go Seva

By building cowsheds in Vraj for Sri Haridāsa Niwas' growing cow population, we facilitate US-based support for the well-being of Vraja's cows.

Supporting Caretakers

Our Go Sevaks are dedicated to serving cows full-time by caring for their nutrition and hygiene, growing seasonal feed and much more. We provide them with financial support for their valuable service.

Cowshed Maintenance

To ensure that our cows live in a safe and clean environment, we offer financial assistance for repairs and maintenance to keep the cowshed in the best condition.

Provide Enrichment

While most Goshalas or Cowsheds take care of the basic needs of the cows, our cows get enrichment through walks, brushing, and caressing. As a result, they get regular exercise and form emotional bonds.

Green Fodder Cultivation

We use organic methods to grow seasonal fooder crops including Sorghum, Egyptian clover, Oats and Napier Grass which are fed to cows. We assist by providing funds for the cultivation and storage of feed.

Sourcing Quality Feed

We prioritize the well-being of our cows by providing them with the best nutrition, including high-quality dry feed, nutrient-rich green fodder, and essential fats from mustard oil cakes, while steering clear of low-quality and cheap alternatives in the market.
