Four short films on what "heritage farming" actually looks like — the trees, the bees, the harvest, the bond.
Our Farm
A grove with roots that run deep.
Marripadu sits in the rolling rain-shadow country of southern Andhra Pradesh — a climate jamun trees love. 30 km from Madanapalle, 140 km from Bangalore airport, and a world away from anywhere in particular.
Forty acres. Fifteen years in active fruiting. One variety we believe in.
Our orchard is planted exclusively with Konkan Bahadoli — the premium large-fruited jamun variety developed by Dr Balasaheb Sawant Konkan Krishi Vidyapeeth. Sweet, juicy pulp. Notably small seeds. A processor's and an eater's fruit.
Each tree is now in its prime — fifteen years old, well-canopied, drought-tolerant, and yielding consistently season after season.

Heritage
Three generations under one canopy.
This is not a new venture. The first dozen jamun saplings went into this red earth nearly a century ago — when most of the region was planting only mangoes.
~1935
The first dozen saplings
The founder's grandfather plants twelve jamun trees on the family land — a quiet act of foresight when neighbors planted only mangoes.

After 18 years of US projects, he returns. Forty acres are planted with Konkan Bahadoli — the modern continuation of his grandfather's quiet vision.
Today
400 tons a season
Our farm plus a curated regional network — supplying processors, exporters and retailers who want jamun done right.
The Mandi
A reliable bulk partner — not just a farm.
Demand for premium jamun outstrips what any single grower can supply. Over the years we've built a small mandi: a curated network of 50+ neighboring farmers we know personally, whose fruit we grade and pack to your spec.
200 + 200 tons
200 tons from our orchard plus 200 tons curated from partner farmers — all the same Konkan Bahadoli variety, all hand-graded.
Grade-to-spec sorting
Size, ripeness, packing format — our team grades every batch to the buyer's brief. Export-grade cartons, bulk crates, retail trays.
Season-ready logistics
June–August is peak. We hold cold-chain capacity, coordinate trucking, and respond to buyer queries within 24 hours during season.
Growing Responsibly
Our bees keep us honest.
Active honeybee colonies live on the farm. Bees and chemical sprays don't mix — so our pest and disease management leans on integrated, bee-safe practices. No shortcuts, no synthetic-only program.
The bees pollinate the blossoms, the trees yield better fruit, and the soil stays alive. It's the way our grandfather farmed. We just learned to call it "sustainable".
- 🐝 Bee-friendly integrated pest management
- 🌱 Soil health — mulching, cover crops, no over-tillage
- 💧 Drip irrigation on a drought-tolerant variety
- 🤝 Fair pricing with our mandi partner farmers

From Our Buyers
Trusted by processors, retailers and family kitchens.
Consistent grade, on-time loading, and the variety we asked for. That's rare for jamun at this scale.
The Konkan Bahadoli pulp percentage is excellent. We use it for our juice line and the seed-to-flesh ratio matters.
Honest people, real heritage. They picked up the call on a Sunday during peak season. That's the relationship I want.
