This year for Diwali, we’re asking people to support our mission by gifting one of our Diwali Gift Hampers. These hampers contain grains and other food items are filled with the purity and promise of Himalaya.
We have taken on the challenging task of giving reverse traceability to the end farmer from whose micro farm the grain in your packet was sourced. Everything you choose from is the work of local farmers like Radha Devi, from village Chilot – who had only 10 kg of Chaulai (Amranth) to spare for selling. This means that there will be only 20 packets of 500gm of Chaulai which shall bear her name and her details for the customer to connect with her.
These gift hampers are filled with the love, efforts, and most importantly, the faith of hundreds of small, micro & marginalized farmers of remote high-altitude regions of Garhwal Himalayas, who still believe in their age-old traditional farming practices.
In a world where the biggest problems are caused by ‘too much of the right things, Bakri Chhap is all about ‘too little of the right things. We want to give you that little bit of love you need.
