Products
Live the harvest. Not just visit it.
Bring your guests, your team, or your buyers where our products actually begin — inside the same Self-Help Group villages behind our wholesale supply chain. Homestays, harvest walks, Aipan art workshops and wellness retreats across the full Himalayan region of Uttarakhand, from the Kumaon hills to the Garhwal peaks.
What to expect from a village-led journey.
Each itinerary is planned around the season, host availability, road conditions and the interests of your group. Final routes and inclusions are confirmed in writing before travel.
Best time to travel
March to June and September to November generally offer comfortable walking conditions. Monsoon and winter routes depend on the district, altitude and current road access.
What is included
Your proposal can include local hosts, village transfers, meals, guided activities, workshops and accommodation. Flights, insurance and personal purchases are quoted separately unless stated.
Group suitability
Routes can be adapted for families, small private groups, corporate teams and trade buyers. Tell us about mobility, dietary or medical requirements during planning.
Responsible conduct
Guests receive guidance on photography, waste, water use and village customs. Farm work and workshops are always host-led and matched to seasonal activity.
Harvest, hospitality and living craft.
Photographs from Uttarakhand show the character of the experiences we can plan. Actual hosts, villages, crops and accommodation vary by confirmed itinerary.

Six ways to build the Himalayas into your itinerary.
From a single afternoon to a producer-immersion week — every package is built around the same villages, Self-Help Groups and artisans behind our wholesale catalog.
Day Village Experience
Guided terraced-farm walk, seasonal harvest participation, a farm-fresh Pahadi lunch, an SHG production-unit visit and shopping direct from producers.
Harvest Homestay Package
Everything in the Day Experience, plus vetted village homestay stays, sunrise Himalayan viewpoints, evening folk culture and cuisine, and multi-village routing.
Kumaon–Garhwal Grand Circuit
A full crossing of the Himalayan sourcing network — sea buckthorn villages near Munsiyari, millet terraces around Almora and Chakrata, and Aipan clusters in Nainital and Ranikhet.
Aipan Art Immersion
Learn Kumaon's sacred, GI-tagged folk art hands-on with the same artisans behind our panels and textiles — geru, biswar, and freehand motifs passed down for generations.
Corporate & Wellness Retreats
Team offsites and CSR immersions, altitude yoga and wellness retreats, content and film shoots, and school or institutional visits — hosted inside working villages.
Buyer Familiarization Tours
See your supply chain in person — SHG facilities, wild-harvest sites, quality controls and packing units — before you commit to a private-label or bulk order.
The entire Himalayan region — Kumaon and Garhwal.
Our itineraries reach across both divisions of Uttarakhand, not a single showcase village. In Kumaon: wild-harvest routes around Munsiyari and Pithoragarh, millet-belt terraces near Almora, and the Aipan artisan clusters of Nainital and Ranikhet. On the Garhwal side: Chakrata in Dehradun district, sea buckthorn valleys near Chamoli, apple and apricot country around Uttarkashi, and the pilgrim-route villages of Rudraprayag and Tehri.
Every route connects back to Dehradun — reachable by air (Jolly Grant), rail and road — with managed mountain transfers handled on our side.

Local hosts & safety
Trained village hosts, vetted homestays, first-aid readiness and coordination with local administration on every itinerary.
Accessibility
Itineraries begin from Dehradun — connected by air, rail and road — with managed mountain transfers to partner villages.
Real community benefit
Hosting fees flow directly to village families and Self-Help Groups — the same communities behind our product supply chain.
Responsible by design
Small-group sizing, low-impact routing and no anonymous middlemen — tourism that funds the villages it visits.
"Guests don't just see the Himalayas here — they harvest with us, eat with us, and leave having met the people behind every jar we ship."
