The mission of New Govardhana Goshala is to serve, worship and protect Lord Krsna’s cows. We shall also strive to educate others in the principles of cow protection. According to facilities available to us, we shall endeavour to continuously improve our varied services for the cows.

Become a Cow Sponsor

In 2009, ISKCON New Govardhana invested over $250,000 for the welfare and protection of the cows. (Of course this was in addition to the monthly overhead of $50,000 for maintaining the New Govardhana temple and farm community.)

Projects undertaken have included excavation of new dams and causeways so the cows have ample water and easy access during flooding. We have constructed fourteen kilometers of top grade fencing, essential for pasture improvement and herd maintenance. We have purchased a new tractor, and have erected a barn to give shelter to the cows during inclement weather.

We are establishing a walking trail for the public to come and see the cows happy in their habitat. We have beautified this environment with newly planted gardens as well as hundreds of fruit trees. Veterinarian care, feed, equipment, supplemental minerals and medicine are also significant expenses in the care of the cows. We also provide for those who care for the cows full time.

Would you like to experience the happiness that comes from showing affection to Krishna’s own cows? Consider this a personal invitation.
