Not every season brings the harvest we hope for. 🌾

This year, nature had other plans. Our jaggery production will be limited, but our commitment to quality remains unchanged.

Our jaggery season begins next month, and advance bookings are now open.

DM us to reserve yours. 🤎

A little throwback to when Varenyam Farms became a space for learning, exploration and little discoveries. 🌿

From our green camp, where children learnt to identify plants and leaves and got creative with nature-inspired art, to school visits filled with curious questions and gentle interactions with our Gir cows.

And of course, no visit is ever complete without a refreshing glass of our farm milk, buttermilk and wholesome refreshments! 🥛

Some lovely memories when learning went beyond the classroom and closer to nature. 💚

Our milk story begins long before milking.
It begins with the soil, the fodder and the care that goes into raising our cows.

We grow our own green fodder.
A significant part of our approach is rooted in growing fodder on our own farm, hence maintaining a direct involvement in what our cows eat.

A thoughtfully planned diet.
Our cows receive a balanced combination of green fodder, dry roughage and supplementary feed, with attention to protein, fibre, minerals and overall nutritional needs.

The difference is in the process.
When you know the herd, the feed and the care taken in producing the milk, you understand what goes into its quality.

From our farm to your home. We oversee the milk.
Our commitment starts long before the milk reaches your doorstep.

And the same philosophy extends to our ghee. Made from the milk of our own Gir cows, our ghee is made using the traditional Bilona method, following a time-honoured process that begins with curd made from our Gir cow milk and involves hand-churning to obtain makkhan (butter), which is then slowly simmered into ghee. It carries forward our commitment to thoughtful animal care and responsible dairy farming.

Starfruit Juice!
We’ve harvested star fruits and we usually eat it by sprinkling some salt and chilli powder on it! This time tried I out this simple, coastal refreshment made from ripe yellow starfruit and absolutely loved for its unique sweet-tart and refreshing flavor!
Ingredients:
Ripe yellow starfruit
Water
Jaggery or candy sugar, to taste
A pinch of jeera powder
Some rock salt to taste
(Small piece of green chilli if you’d like to experiment!)
Ice cubes for serving

Add everything into a jar and blend and serve chilled!

Did you know there are 14 different kinds of lemons growing on our farm? 🍋😃

From Bijora and Kagzi to Sharbati, Desi and Baramasi, each one is different — shapes are round/oval/pear shaped in all different sizes, colour ranges from deep green to shades of yellow and a very wide spectrum of flavours (my mouth is watering just writing this!). Some are grown especially for pickling, while others make their way into our kitchen.
It’s fascinating how much diversity you can find in one little citrus family each with its own distinct taste, fragrance and flavour profile🍋🌿
Honestly, who doesn’t enjoy growing citrus?

🌿 Wild Plants of Varenyam Farms

Not everything growing on our farm was planted by us.
Some simply find their way here, naturally becoming part of the landscape. 🌱
This beautiful wild flower Costus speciosus, also known as Crepe Ginger, is one of the many interesting plants that occur naturally alongside the cultivated landscape of the farm. It grows striking red blooms that stand out against the green backdrop, attracting pollinators including bees, butterflies and birds, contributing to the biodiversity of the farm.

A little reminder that a farm is a complete ecosystem, where nature gets to grow and balance out in its own way. ❤️

An honour to welcome Dr. K. M. Damor, Regional Joint Director, Animal Husbandry, along with representatives from Valsad ICDP, to Varenyam Farms today.

We were among the few farms selected for their visit to observe our Gir cows, our approach to ethical breeding, farm management and the way we nurture our herd.

From growing our own green fodder to maintaining our cows with care, and producing milk and ghee with the same principles we have always believed in — we remain committed to doing things thoughtfully and responsibly.

Grateful for the recognition of the work that happens quietly on our farm every day. 🌿

Farm stories 2: Planning ahead is a crucial part of farming. We are cutting and storing Napier grass today, so our cows stay nourished while our team takes a well deserved break to celebrate Holi with their families.

Farm Stories 1: Did you know Gujarat grows 300+ varieties of bor? 🌿
In Gujarat, bor (ber) is more than just a fruit—it is a living heritage.
Each variety is unique in flavour, texture, and character. Gujarat’s land especially nurtures diverse cultivars like Umran, Gola, Banarasi, Kaithali, Mundia, Elaichi, Seb, Ajmeri, and Randeri—each reflecting the richness of our soil and climate.
Bor trees are incredibly resilient! They withstand harsh summers, adapt to changing seasons, and continue to give year after year.

This bor tree here is especially close to our hearts.
It was planted by our grandfather many decades ago, and today it continues to nourish us—just as his vision and legacy continue to nurture our family and farm.

Some trees don’t just grow fruit.
They grow memories, roots, and generations. 🌳
