Grown here, picked ripe

Everything on this page comes off our own orchards and beds. No chemical fertiliser, no synthetic pesticide, no carbide ripening. Fruit comes down when the tree lets go.

From the orchard

Fruit, in its own season

Nothing is forced early and nothing is held back in cold storage. What is ripe is what we sell, which is why the list changes through the year.

Cluster of ripening mangoes hanging from a branch Mar to Jun

Mango

The heart of the farm. Table varieties and juice varieties, ripened on the tree and in straw, never with carbide.

Deep red pomegranates ripening on the branch Sep to Feb

Pomegranate

Thin-skinned and heavy for their size, with deep arils. They travel badly, which is exactly why they are best bought here.

Green guavas growing among broad leaves Aug to Feb

Guava

Crisp through the cool months, soft and perfumed at the end of the run. Eaten with salt and chilli by everyone who works here.

Custard apple ripening on a branch Aug to Nov

Custard apple

Sitaphal, picked at the point where the segments just begin to separate. A short season and it sells out quickly.

Papaya growing on the trunk of a papaya tree Year round

Papaya

Fruiting almost all year. Green for curries and thoran, ripe for breakfast on the verandah.

Banana grove at first light beside still water Year round

Banana

Grown along the water line. The leaves feed our own kitchen as plates for functions and festival meals.

Yellow lemons hanging on a lemon tree Year round

Lemon

Thin-skinned and heavy with juice. Also what goes into the welcome drink waiting for you at the gate.

Rows of tall palm trees across a green field Year round

Tender coconut

Cut and opened in front of you. The best answer to a Telangana afternoon that anyone has yet found.

From the beds

Vegetables, greens and pantry

Grown in rotation beside the orchard, mostly for our own kitchen. Whatever is surplus goes home with guests.

Basket of freshly harvested pumpkin, okra and fruit Seasonal

Seasonal vegetables & greens

Okra, brinjal, tomato, gourds, beans, drumstick and whichever leafy greens the month favours, cut the morning you collect them.

Fresh turmeric root, dried pieces and ground powder Post-monsoon

Turmeric

Grown, boiled, dried and ground the old way. Deep colour, strong smell, and nothing added to bulk it out.

Jar of raw honey with honeycomb Limited

Raw honey

From hives kept at the edge of the orchard. Unheated and unfiltered, so it sets in the cool months, which is how you know it is real.

Golden paddy field at the end of the day Harvest

Grain & millets

Rice and small millets grown in rotation to rest the soil, milled in small batches for the farm kitchen and for guests.

How to buy

Three ways to get it

We sell at the farm rather than through shops, so what you get is what came off the tree that week.

  1. At the farm gate

    Drive down and pick up whatever is in season. Email ahead so we can set it aside for you.

  2. With your stay

    Guests take a box home at farm-gate rates. In mango season you can pick your own.

  3. Bulk & gifting

    Festival boxes, office gifting and bulk mango orders. Tell us the quantity and the date.

Why it tastes different

Because nothing was rushed

Chemically pushed fruit grows fast and hollow. Ours grows slower on compost and green manure, so it holds more sugar and more smell, and it keeps badly, because there is nothing in it to keep it.

  • No chemical fertiliser or synthetic pesticide
  • No carbide or ethylene ripening chambers
  • Compost, green manure and farm cattle only
  • Picked to order, not stored for weeks

Taste it where it grew
