The original Khelcom is an agricultural community with thousands of hectares of land outside the Holy City of Touba in Senegal. Khelcom was founded by Seringe Saliou, son of Serigne Touba. Serigne Touba was known as one of the greateset spiritial leaders in Senegal and was the founder of the Mouride Community. He was known for his devout faith as a servant of Allah, his extensive writings on spirituality, and his decades long pacifist resistance to colonialism. He believed strongly in hard work and simple living,as well as the virtues of spiritual and mental freedom. Khelcom Farm, Vermont, was founded on the principle that education, hard work, and food sovereignty can liberate people and provide a better future. Urban Farm | Khelcom Farm | Berlin & Barre
