Dahanu, a quiet seaside town with a sprawling, uncluttered beach, is situated in Thane district of Maharashtra State, a mere 124 kms. from the bustling city of Mumbai.
Lined with fruit orchards, flower gardens and famous for its Chikoo fruit, this India’s Chikoo county and once-barren land thrived under Irani settlers, an earthy people.
Situated a mere 120 kilometres north of the city of Mumbai, Dahanu taluka is today at crossroads - ecologically, socially, culturally; surrounded by the rapidly advancing industrial and commercial metros of Mumbai and Vapi.
The farming and orchard owning community in Dahanu also grapples with its own realities; the challenge facing the farmers is to be able to retain their tranquil way of life while yet redefining their sources of livelihood. The need of the hour is to demonstrate alternative and sustaining forms of development, that are economically and ecologically viable.
To the visitors Dahanu shows ways to celebrate life!
