Being a start up and that too with only a passion and no biz plan in mind except that I wanted to offer as pure as possible farm produce to friends and their friends in the city leads to certain situations which hadn't been anticpated . The month of August had quiet a few glitches happening , though it made some people think that the quality of milk was inconsistent -- though homes that have been

BIG WORRY FACTOR .... :-( !! The Biggest worry to hit a small operaion like ours are the spiralling costs of all feed materials this year ... most of the items have gone up by 40-45% over last season and are expected to go up even more . This high feed cost is hitting the farm and its viability in a big way and inspite of trying to avoid it , we see no other way around it but to increase the

THE LOGO A lot of you must be confused between Singha farms & Asaavi Farms and wondering if they are two different farms or what !! Actually , they both are the same entity -- started of as Singha Farms but then had to change to Asaavi farms as under the company law ( or something like that ) I can't get exclusive

I kind of got lazy mainly due to the fact that I got very busy with the farm expansion and stuff ... along the way I also became a dad and as we had decided to try and bring up our child with no help , I became a sit at home dad by default ( not complaining at all though I never thought id be happy doing something like this ) !! The farm has over time expanded its customer base , shifted twice

I know its been a long time since the last update ... but things have been hectic with people running from their summer vacations and demand for milk rising , along with that more and more samples being distributed as some members giving us loads of references to their friends . Though we have lots of members referring , we have lots of them who are not referring any and we hoping that do start

27th June '07 -- Our friend for ages left us and moved to his next destination . Duke has been with us for ages and given our family so many special moments and the void left by him will be felt for a long time to come . He came to us as a lil pup along with his sister ' Blackie ' and then grew to be a very very special friend . I don't know how but he learnt a lot on his own and it felt as if he

After the hail storm hitting the farm in Himachal we had to try and figure out a way to survive the heat wave that hit Delhi in June after the pretty cool month of May . The temps touched the 44 deg Celsius mark on a every day basis and the cows lost their apperite and thus leading to a drop in their milk production . To keep them safe from the effect of the heat we have installed a fogging

Well its been just over 2 weeks since I started the Marketing Campaign ... Started out by getting the close friends to sign up , people who had been explained the concept way before I even started and they signed up without even sampling the milk . But soon I ran out of friends with children so I started hounding them friends to talk to their friends .... as thats how we had decided to spread our

Ive been really busy of late and thus havn't had much time to pen down anything new . Last week our apple season ended even before it had started , wondering how ? Well, this year for a change we had a decent crop of apple coming up but even before the apples reached the toddler stage , Kotgarh got hammered by a massive hail storm --- a down pour of hail the size of big lemons , which really

Seems I'm getting the hang of it .. and soon probably will be hooked onto it . By now you must have realised that we are an average farming family who wanted to do things differently than the conventional farmers -- and that is to try and reach the final consumers directly .So in order to do this I finally went to a designer and got a logo for my farm ... got some brochures made ... got a friend

It all started of very casually -- I had already been farming since 2000 in Himachal after quitting from the regular 9-5 job cycle . My family has always been into farming , so it made it much easier for me compared to a lot of other people I know who would luv to quit the corporate life and do something like this . I have to thank my parents who really supported me inspite of thinking that I was

Im very new to the blogging world so the first few write ups are probably not gonna be very interesting or creative . The blog has been started for me to share my experience of trying to get people to read about the developments on my organic farm and my endeavour to try and get ppl to eat pure unadulterated fresh food .So lets see how it goes from here on ....
