Strawberries - Organically Grown - 500 GM

Fruits

Strawberries are not just delicious, but packed with nutrition. They are high in antioxidants which mop up free radicals, full of fibre in their flesh and seeds, and packed with Vitamin C. In addition, they also contain Quercetin and Ellagic Acid which both have anti-cancer properties. Ellagic acid, for instance, is known to slow down reproduction of cancer cells and growth of blood vessels that feed new tumour cells.

However, strawberries consistently top the list of fruits and vegetables which have the most pesticide residues found in them.

We bring these strawberries from Yashoda Farm. The farmer is cultivating chemical free strawberries at his farm at Wai in the Satara District of Maharashtra for past 6 years. He is implementing a mix of natural farming techniques along with the use of certified organic inputs. One of the main concoctions he uses to fend off pests, is made of the following - 5 litre cow urine, 2 litre of sour buttermilk, 1 kg green chilly, 1 kg local jaggery, 1 kg besan flour, 1 kg neem fruits (Nimboli) and a drum full of water -  these are mixed together and fermented for 8 days, and about 150 ml applied per plant via drip irrigation.


These strawberries will be delivered to you within 36 hours of harvest. Please open the boxes as soon as you receive them.

Note: Strawberries have very short shelf life so please consume soon.
