Our Offerings
Day Trip
Family Outing and Corporate Visits
Our Day Visit is the perfect way to experience life on a natural farm — whether with family, friends, or colleagues. It’s immersive, educational, and refreshingly simple.
The day begins with a farm-fresh breakfast, followed by a guided walking tour across the fields. You’ll step into the soil, understand how food is grown, and see fruits and vegetables thriving in their natural ecosystem.
Depending on the season, you may even pluck and taste fruits straight from the tree.
Ideal For
- Family get-togethers
- Birthday gatherings
- Corporate team outings
- School groups
- Friends looking for a nature break
For those short on time, we also offer a half-day option (10AM–2PM), including light refreshments and lunch.
What You’ll Experience
You’ll explore how a natural farm sustains itself — through beekeeping, composting, water conservation, diverse cropping methods, and mindful irrigation. The experience goes beyond observation: spend time with farm animals, try simple hands-on activities, stroll through orchards, and reconnect with the land in the most natural way.
Farm-Fresh Lunch
By afternoon, a traditional rural vegetarian Karnataka meal is served — prepared using ingredients grown on the farm wherever possible.
This is not restaurant food.
It is wholesome, home-style farm food — and it completes the experience.
Play, Connect & Unwind
Post lunch, you can enjoy traditional rural games like:
Pagade, Chowkabara, Lagori, Alaguli Mane and more — or opt for badminton and cricket if you prefer something modern.
On special request, we can also arrange a pottery session (chargeable), where guests can create and take home their own handmade piece.
