About Us

Our Beginning

Welcome to Mindful Harvest, a nonprofit foundation where sustainable agriculture meets mental well-being, creating a harmonious balance for individuals and communities. Rooted in the visionary work of Dr. Rubina Gill, an agriculture scientist, and Dr. Harmesh Kumar President/ CEO of SABH Foundation. Inc. and mental health advocate, Mindful Harvest bridges the vital connections between food cultivation, nutrition, and emotional resilience.

As an integral part of the South Asian Behavioral Foundation (SABH), our mission extends beyond farming to encompass the holistic health of individuals and the planet. Together, we strive to inspire, educate, and empower communities to foster healing, personal growth, and sustainable environmental stewardship.

Who We Are

At Mindful Harvest, we believe that the foundation of a healthy mind and body lies in a balanced relationship with the soil. Our organization is dedicated to nurturing wellness through innovative practices that combine agriculture, nutrition, and mental health.

Our diverse team includes experts in:

Agronomy/Agriculture

At Mindful Harvest, we believe that sustainable agriculture is essential for both environmental and human health. Our approach focuses on improving soil health through practices that reduce the reliance on chemicals and pesticides. We emphasize integrated nutrient management to enhance soil fertility and increase crop production by ensuring crops receive the right balance of nutrients. By promoting organic farming techniques and regenerative practices, we aim to create a harmonious relationship between agriculture and nature. These methods not only improve crop yields but also ensure the production of nutritious, chemical-free food, supporting the well- being of both the land and the communities it nourishes, which is crucial for long-term sustainability.

Mental Health

At Mindful Harvest, we understand that mental health is a vital component of overall well-being and is deeply connected to both our personal and community health. We are dedicated to addressing the emotional and psychological needs of individuals through a holistic approach that integrates agriculture, nutrition, and mental health. By focusing on mental health, we aim to reduce stress, improve emotional resilience, and promote healthier coping mechanisms, all of which enhance the quality of life for individuals and communities.

Our mental health experts work to provide support through counseling, awareness programs, and community initiatives that empower people to manage stress, anxiety, and depression. We believe that promoting mental well-being is essential for building stronger, more connected communities, as individuals who feel supported and mentally healthy are more likely to contribute positively to society. Moreover, by encouraging mindfulness, emotional awareness, and self-care practices, we foster a sense of belonging and strengthen the overall social fabric.

Nutrition

At Mindful Harvest, our primary goal is to provide individuals and communities with essential knowledge about nutrition and the importance of a balanced diet in achieving optimal health. We are committed to raising awareness about how food choices can directly impact overall well- being, especially in managing chronic conditions like diabetes and strengthening the immune system. A well-balanced diet, rich in essential nutrients, can help regulate blood sugar levels, reducing the risks associated with diabetes while promoting sustained energy and better metabolic health. At the same time, consuming immunity-boosting foods packed with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants strengthens the body’s natural defenses, making it more resilient against infections and illnesses. Through education and awareness, we aim to empower people to make informed dietary choices that not only address immediate health concerns but also foster long-term wellness. At the heart of our mission is the belief that understanding the relationship between food and health can transform lives and create healthier communities.
