What is TWA?

The Weekend Agriculturist [TWA] is a volunteer organization which helps small and marginal farmers by volunteering on their land by doing the farm work at no cost during weekends. We have been doing this for 2.5 years around Chennai like Thiruvallur, Thindivanam, Pondicherry etc..

As a gesture of reaching out to the less privileged, volunteers will be helping small and marginal farmers in and around Chennai on Oct 3rd and 4th. Its a wonderful opportunity to learn about agriculture and contribute meaningfully too.
