  Description

  We are a 13-acre organic, permaculture farm. This is a family owned farm in a small picture-perfect village about 3 hours from the city of Chennai in south of India. We run a Farmstay for people to stay and experience the beauty of village and farm life. We have built a comfortable, compact space in the middle of the farm, surrounded by rich greenery, for workawayers to stay. We have lots of farm animals and you will love interacting with them.

Since the farm is located in a quiet place away from all the hustle and bustle of city life, its a good place to unplug and recharge.
