FARM SHIKSHA

FARM SHIKSHA was established by a entrepreneur due to his passion for Agriculture along with her supporting family members after quitting a lucrative High paying Job. His venture was well nurtured by family members who are all from Agriculture background and also qualified professionals in Finance. The main idea is to develop a Modern Knowledge Bank by following the organic farm practices from growing fruits and vegetables till it reaches the end customer. Quality food with no fertilisers and pe... sticide is their motto. They follow the practice for natural ripening of the fruits as well. Located 50 Kms from Chennai Farm Shiksha can be reached in one and a half an hour by road. As you drive in through the gates you can hear the welcome sounds of the ducks playing with fish and the friendly looks of the indigenous breed of cows willing to accept the grass and hay from you. You can easily become friendly with the calves and they will start licking your legs and you can enjoy the fresh coconut water amidst the farm smell of the cattle shed. You will really cherish the exact moment which your ancestors enjoyed for a long long time.
