About Farm:
Red Hill Organic Farm is a certified natural farm located in Chittoor, nurtured with a passion for sustainable agriculture. After spending 11 years working in Germany, Canada, and Singapore as a Technical Lead Electronics Engineer at Boeing, I returned to my roots to pursue my passion for farming. Today, I cultivate 30 acres of fertile red soil, growing a diverse range of fruits including mango, papaya, sapota, banana, guava, ash gourd, black jamun, and more. We follow traditional cow-based farming methods inspired by Subhash Palekar and Isha Foundation, using rainwater harvesting, Jeevamrutham, and herbal kashayams to enrich our soil and crops naturally. Our fruits are 100% chemical-free, naturally ripened, and delivered fresh. With over 35 varieties of mangoes, we celebrate the richness of biodiversity while staying committed to sustainable and organic farming.
