Empowering Mountain Communities Through Technology
In the picturesque villages of Uttarakhand, we witnessed a concerning trend: young people migrating to plains in search of livelihood, leaving behind aging parents and empty homes. This migration has hollowed out once-vibrant communities, with over 1,700 villages now classified as ghost villages.
We asked ourselves a simple question: Why can not we create jobs in the villages themselves? This question became our mission, and with the help of local Mahila Mandals (Women's Collectives), we began cultivating, processing, and packaging organic products that represent the essence of Uttarakhand Pauri Garhwal.

We partner with women's collectives in remote villages, providing training, resources, and market access. These women are the backbone of our initiative, bringing traditional knowledge and dedication to quality.
All our products are grown and processed without chemicals, preserving the natural purity of Uttarakhand's soil. We follow traditional farming methods that have sustained these communities for generations.
We are bridging the digital divide by introducing technology that connects remote villages to global markets. Our platform gives Pahadi (mountain) producers the tools to compete in the modern marketplace.
