Empowering Farmers in Rajasthan Through Lemongrass
By Sumana Palle
Our recent visit to Rajasthan was a heartwarming reminder of the enduring impact of our collaboration with Seva Mandir and the Khatamla Women's Cluster. We reconnected with the dedicated farmers who grow the lemongrass that forms the backbone of our beloved products. These farmers, deeply rooted in their land and traditions, have embraced sustainable agriculture practices that not only yield high-quality lemongrass but also protect the environment. This visit allowed us to engage directly with the community, ensuring that our sourcing practices continue to align with our values of sustainability and fair trade.
One of the most poignant moments of our trip was learning about the profound impact our partnership has had on individual lives. With our most recent inventory sourcing, we were able to help a farmer pay off his medical bills, providing much-needed financial relief. This is more than just a transaction; it is a testament to the power of ethical business practices in fostering real, positive change. By continuing to support these farmers, we are not only bringing exceptional lemongrass products to our customers but also uplifting entire communities. Our ongoing work with Seva Mandir and the Khatamla Women's Cluster exemplifies our commitment to social impact, and we are honored to be part of such transformative journeys.
