Long Red Chitra Rajma - Organically Grown - 1 kg

Staples

Long Red Chitra rajma is highly prized for offering the perfect balance of colour and taste. It is easy to cook, forming a very good gravy. Mixing 25% white rajma with this elevates the taste.

This Rajma is grown in the upper Tons Valley, Uttarakhand.

Rajma is one of the staple food crops in this valley. Almost all farmers sow rajma, as it is the main source of vegetable protein in the local cuisine.Farmers who have rajma which is surplus to their annual food and see purpose, sell it to earn money. Tons Trails supports these hard working farmers by finding a fair market value for their produce. They pay a fair price that compensates these farmers for growing rajma in remote fields which don't even have access to a road. The harvest has to be brought on mules to the nearest road and then transported to the processing center. 
This rajma is completely organic, grown using only natural compost and cow manure. No inorganic fertilizers or chemical pesticides are used.Tons Trails is in the process of helping these farmers getting their produce certified organic very soon.


About Tons Trails
Tons Trails is a travel company ! We began work in 2013, in a small way, putting the tiny himalayan village of Kalap ( www.kalap.in ) in tourism (and literally on Google) maps!
We did this the hard way by narrating the story of the destination and training the local people in hospitality practices such as running a homestay and guiding tourists.
In 2017, other villages in the Tons Valley, asked us to work with them too. So, now we are working to bring economic empowerment through tourism to 37 villages!
Now, we aggregate products produced by the local communities here and help find a fair price for them. 2% of the revenues are earmarked for supporting Kalap Trust.
