We've been growing food plants organically at home (apartments and row houses) for several years and conducting workshops for urban kitchen gardening enthusiasts for the last two years. We've had over 800 people participate in our workshops in Goa because they're informal, focus on organic methods and actually help make kitchen gardening simpler. Over this period we've grown over 70 distinct types of vegetables and fruits not just in pots, but is small garden patches, on terraces and most recently our own organic farm - which currently provides produce to a five-star hotel, cafes and supermarkets in Goa
