Organic Farming Service

What awaits you next is a visit to a Chahal Farm. A few farmers owning land more than six acres have been working closely with the ECO Farming programs in order to offer this experience to the tourist.

The tourists can observe at close quarters the traditional farming life in an Amritsar village and get first-hand knowledge of subjects like organic farming and livestock farming. If you are the adventurous sort, you could even try your hand at some of the activities like milking the cows. Drinking fresh, warm milk straight from the farm is sure to be an experience.

The guests can also angle in the ponds and learn the basics of slightly more complicated activities like toddy tapping, and coconut palm leaf weaving and screw-pine weaving.

Another Tractor ride from here takes you to another farmer’s house, where you will be welcomed with a tender coconut drink. Apart from paddy cultivation, this farmer also has fish ponds sprawled over acres of land. A wide variety of fishes, including the Pearl Spot, are seen in the ponds. Almost all the locally grown vegetables are available here, and they have been grown without the application of any chemical fertilizer.

We offer you lush green paddy fields and abundant birdlife. The expert oarsman who accompanies you to Moolepadam will take you to his house with its thatched roof. It is one of the traditional houses at Chahal Farm in Amritsar.
