About Company

“ Organika Farms was set up in June 2017, to grow pure organic food in the traditional way. It started in Adhoi Village (Ambala District) on a four-acre leased farm. In 2019 Organika Farms expanded to a 10-acre acquired farm in Pachehra (Mathura District). Completely based on natural methods like green manuring, crop rotation and mixed farming, the farms do not use any chemical fertilizers or pesticides. The farms are successfully growing Cereals, Pulses, Spices, Oilseeds and Cash crops like Sugarcane. We believe that Organika Farms produces not just food for satisfying hunger but – “Food that heals, Food that nourishes the body and the soul!”

“Organika Farms was founded by three professionals with one common passion – their love for nature and all things natural. Padma Iyer Kaul a career civil servant, Divya Kaul an educationist and Anuraag Kaul an Insurance Professional. Their diverse professional backgrounds make for a vibrant organization and have helped create the brand ‘Organika’ which stands for integrity and creating value for the consumer through pure, natural food at reasonable prices. While Padma and Divya have committed themselves full time to ‘Organika’, Anuraag has chosen to be the friend, philosopher and guide to this initiative”

Organika Farms started as a post retirement dream of the founders – a civil servant (Padma Iyer Kaul), an education professional (Divya Kaul) and an insurance professional (Anuraag Kaul).  Joined by their common passion for being close to nature, they decided to put to good use the passion of Padma Iyer Kaul for growing chemical free organic food and flowers in the government residences they lived in for 25 years!

 

They started Organika Farms in June 2017, on a 4-acre plot leased in Adhoi village, District Ambala, to start growing organic food and test waters before taking the final plunge. Every weekend one of them would head for Ambala and spend two days experimenting with soil, seeds and cows. They joined the organic farming community to understand the farming methods and the whole growing process. These joyful weekends led them to acquire a 10 acre plot in village Pach-Hara Mathura District.

Despite no chemical fertilizers or pesticides they grew everything. Nature was kind and bountiful and very forgiving of all their mistakes (well, not always as they lost a whole crop of sesame to caterpillars!). However very soon what started as a weekend venture took over their entire life. They realized that growing organic and healthy food could not be a part-time activity. Divya resigned first from her teaching career. Soon Padma an Additional Secretary rank officer with the Department of Telecom resigned 6 years before her retirement to turn full time organic farmer.

‘Organika’ is a brand that represents Chemical Free Pure Farm Food. Their complete range of healthy and nutritious items like cereals, pulses, spices, oilseeds and sweeteners are sourced from their own dedicated farm and from certified farmers/organizations. Driven by the passion of a former bureaucrat -Organika is committed to building sustainable natural farming practices, gender parity in wages and local community participation. Organika is committed to quality and traceability of its products – ‘farm to fork, as they say!
