OUR STORY

A Brief History of TIEEDI

Tieedi is an environmental conservation organization based in Darjeeling, practicing permaculture – the art of working with Mother Nature. Founded in 2016, our efforts focus on experiential environmental education, regenerative tourism, natural farming, decentralized waste management, and sustainable land and building design consultation.

Over the years, we’ve had the privilege of hosting travelers from all over the world, and we’re honored to be ranked as the No. 1 Specialty Lodging in Darjeeling on TripAdvisor. We also offer volunteer opportunities, where participants can learn about permaculture while contributing to one of our ongoing projects.

In the fight against the climate crisis, we see ourselves as frontline warriors, committed to providing practical, individual, and institutional solutions to the environmental challenges around us today.
