The devotees are privileged to worship in New Talavan's beautiful Temple. The Temple was constructed in 1979 and renovated in 1987. Landscaping and pagodas were added in 2002. The New Talavan Temple is home to our most merciful, gracious and beautiful Lordships, Sri-Sri Radha-Radhakanta and Sri-Sri Gaura-Nitai.
The New Talavan farm community was begun as a project in June of 1974. Talavan is one of the twelve forests around Vrndavana, a city in India where Krishna incarnated 5,000 years ago. Krishna and His cowherd friends would go there and play, rest, eat and watch their cows as they grazed. At first it was just a few devotees from the New Orleans temple who came out and slowly began planting gardens. They worked as time permitted and then returned to the New Orleans temple at night, a round trip of about 130 miles. Soon some devotees began staying on the farm full time. The first cow was purchased from a stockyard and the devotees named her Kunti. She gave the farm its first fresh milk as well as its first calf, named Subhadra. Later more cows were purchased.
The devotees also continued to purchase more land over the next 10 years. Eventually we reached a total of 1300 acres. This makes New Talavan the second largest Hare Krishna farm community. Currently New Talavan is producing wheat, fruit, and vegetables. We also have about 60 acres set aside for hay and collect hay from another 100 acres not owned by New Talavan Krishna's cows are also producing fresh milk from which the devotees supply our presiding Deities with delightful milk sweets.
New Talavana is a temple/farm. It conducts a full scale deity worship program and observes major Gaudiya Vaisnava festivals. There is organic gardening and orchards of fruits and nuts. The food we produce is often used at our vegetarian/vegan friendly restaurants, Good Karma Cafes, on the Mississippi Coast.
Currently our guest facility is limited but we still manage to host many people including Workers on Organic Farms, visiting devotees, guest from other temples and occasionally life members of ISKCON.
