🌱 "A few months ago, I planted a tiny seed in my garden. I watered it every day, watched it sprout, and celebrated every new leaf. But what struck me wasn’t just how the plant grew, it was how much it reminded me of my own #LifeJourney." Just like that seed, I started small, fragile, and full of potential. With care, challenges, and time, I grew just like the plant did. And as I reflected, I realized something profound: the #LifeCycle of plants mirrors our own. Let’s break it down: 🌱 Plants <--------------------->🧍♂Humans 🌟 Germination <-------------->👶 Infancy 🌿 Seedling Stage <----------->🧒 Childhood 🌳 Vegetative Growth <------->🧑🎓 Adolescence 🌸 Flowering & Fruiting <----->🧑💼 Adulthood 🍎 Seed Development <-------> 👨👩👧👦 Parenthood 🍂 Senescence <--------------->👵 Aging & Death What stage are you in? And what are you nurturing? 🌿 Just like a plant’s roots feed the soil even after it’s gone, our #Legacy = our #actions, #love, and #wisdom which feeds the world long after we’re no longer here. 🌟 Life isn’t about how long we stand tall; it’s about what we leave behind. #Purpose #Growth Let me know in the comments: What are you growing in your stage of life? 🌸🌱 #LifeJourney #LifeCycle #Legacy #Purpose #Growth
About us
When our founder, Madhu Chandan, returned from the US to his hometown Mandya in 2014, he saw the condition of farmers and decided to do something about it. Soon Madhu realized chemical farming has ruined agriculture and we need to go back to our roots. He started talking to farmers explaining them how organic farming works — use of only natural means such as fertilizers obtained from cow dung, techniques such as crop rotation and mixed cropping, and biological pest control. After seeing the results, more and more farmers joined this impromptu group which led to the formation of Mandya Organic Farmers Co-operative Society. Every Monday we hold a free organic farming training session in Mandya (it’s a mix of various natural farming techniques — predominantly, Subhash Palekar’s Zero Budget Natural Farming). So far, thousands of farmers across India have come to learn how organic farming is done and you’d be glad to know, as of now, we have 7000+ farmers under our co-op society! We procure the produce directly from these farmers and sell them through our chain of supermarkets in Bangalore. Our mission, in that sense, is threefold: a) help provide sustainable livelihoods to farmers, and b) offer 100% honest organic food to people, and c) make Mandya (to start with) chemical-free.

🌱 Empowering Farmers: A Step Towards Organic Farming 🌱 We proudly took the initiative to conduct a free, full-day training program aimed at educating farmers on the principles and benefits of organic farming. This effort is part of our mission to inspire and enable #500Farmers to adopt organic cultivation practices and create a #SustainableFuture. Our training wasn’t just about knowledge-sharing; it was designed to be engaging and mindset-focused. We incorporated #InteractiveGames and #Activities specifically crafted to challenge perspectives and encourage a #MindsetShift towards #SustainableFarming practices. We believe that real transformation starts with changing how we think. This initiative was a crucial step in helping farmers embrace a more #OrganicFarming and #EcoFriendly approach to agriculture. 🌾💚 A heartfelt thank you to all the #Farmers who participated with enthusiasm and to everyone who supported this #CommunityDriven initiative. Together, we are sowing the seeds of a #GreenerTomorrow and a healthier planet. 🌍✨ #Sustainability #FarmersFirst #AgricultureInnovation #FutureOfFarming #OrganicFarming #SustainableAgriculture #FarmerTraining #AgriEducation #MindsetShift #EmpowerFarmers #GreenFarming #AgriInnovation #FarmersFirst #EcoFriendlyFarming

🚨 Grocery Shopping Dilemma: Is Anything Safe to Eat Anymore? 🚨 The other day, I went on what I thought would be a simple #snackrun to the supermarket. It turned into a mini existential crisis instead. Let me take you through it... 🛒😅 🌀 Step 1: The Snack Aisle I reached for some "healthy" granola bars. But thanks to those countless #YouTube videos on how to #readlabels, I decided to check the ingredients list. 🔍 What I found: #ArtificialFlavors ❌ #Preservatives ❌ Unpronounceable #Additives ❌ Reality Check: Many of these so-called #HealthySnacks have ingredients linked to #carcinogens! I put the granola bars back and thought, Maybe I need to choose something simpler... 🍳 Step 2: Eggs Are a Safe Bet, Right? Eggs seemed like a good choice—until I remembered the videos about #CommercialEggProduction. 🐔💊 The Truth Behind the Labels: Hens in #crampedcages 🚫 Pumped with #antibiotics 🚫 ‘#Organic’ and ‘#CageFree’ labels that mean little in practice 🚫 Where were the #nattieggs from real, hay-fed hens? Nowhere to be found. 😞 🥬 Step 3: Fresh Greens Will Save the Day... Or Will They? I thought, Fine, I’ll grab some spinach. Fresh, green, and #healthy—right? Then I remembered a recent news story: leafy greens often grown in #sewage-contaminated water. 💧🌱 Suddenly, the #palak (spinach) in my hand felt less like a #superfood and more like a gamble. 😟 The Result: I stood there, holding an empty basket, overwhelmed by the realization that even the simplest, “#healthiest” options aren’t what they seem. I walked out with just a bottle of #water and a burning question: “In a world with so many choices, why is it so hard to find #REAL, #TRUSTWORTHY food?” #FoodForThought #CleanEating #ConsumerAwareness #FoodSafety #MindfulEating #HealthyLiving

Feed the Green: UNPACKING PLANT NUTRIENT DEFICIENCIES! 🌱💚 Have you ever heard of nutrient deficiencies in plants? 🤔 Just like us, they can suffer when they don’t get the nutrients they need. While we might feel sluggish from skipping out on our greens 🥦, plants can face serious consequences when they lack essential nutrients. Macronutrients: The Big Three NITROGEN (N): The protein shake for plants! 🥤 Without it, leaves turn yellow 🌼, much like when you skip protein and end up hangry. 🍽️ PHOSPHORUS (P): The carb source! 🍞 A deficiency here stunts growth, just like avoiding carbs can leave us sluggish. 😴 POTASSIUM (K): The hydration guru! 💧 A lack of potassium makes plants susceptible to disease, just like our bodies when we forget to drink water! 🚰 Micronutrients: The Unsung Heroes IRON: Vital for chlorophyll production. 🌿 A deficiency leads to yellowing leaves, akin to our fatigue when we neglect our own iron intake. 🥬 ZINC: Important for growth! ⚡ A deficiency results in stunted plants, much like how we feel when our health lacks a bit of zing! 🎉 So, whether it’s a tomato plant needing nitrogen or you craving some greens, remember that balanced nutrition is key for both plants and humans. 🌍💚 Next time you’re watering your leafy friends 🌿, check in on your own diet too! After all, a well-nourished plant (and person) is a happy one! 😊🌞 #NutrientDeficiency #PlantHealth #BalancedDiet #HealthyLiving #GreenThumb #WellnessJourney #PlantCare #NutritionMatters

Are Figs Truly Vegetarian? The Surprising Truth You Didn’t Know! 🌱🧐" We all love figs for their sweet taste and health benefits. But did you know they might not be fully #plantbased? 🤯 The Hidden Truth: Fig-Wasp Connection 🕵♂🪰 Figs rely on a tiny insect called the fig wasp for #pollination. Here’s the twist: The female wasp lays eggs inside the fig and often dies there. 💀 The fig then breaks down the wasp’s body using an enzyme, ficin, effectively absorbing it. Not All Figs Are the Same 🍈 However, not all figs involve wasp pollination. Many commercially grown figs (like common figs) are parthenocarpic, meaning they ripen without pollination. 🌱 Ethical Dilemma: Vegan or Not? 🤔 #StrictVegans: Might avoid figs due to the potential involvement of wasps. 🦟 General #PlantBased Eaters: Often still consider figs vegetarian because the wasp is usually dissolved by the fig’s enzymes and is no longer distinguishable. The Bottom Line: Concerned about #AnimalRemnants? You might choose to avoid figs. ❌ Otherwise, figs are widely accepted as #vegetarian and #vegan-friendly. ✅ What’s Your Take? 💬 Would you still consider figs part of a #plantbaseddiet? Let’s start a conversation – share your thoughts below and tag someone who needs to know this! #FoodForThought #VeganDebate #NatureIsWild #CuriousFacts
