Much more than just 100% organic!
La Naturelle Ferme, is a nationally recognised,acclaimed and awarded regenerative agriculture system located at the foothills of Satpuda ranges.
We practice much more than organic farming. Our kind of method restores four basic ecosystem processes, which includes:
- Solar energy-chemical energy conversion through photosynthesis
- Improving the water cycle through phototranspiration
- Restoration of biogeochemical nutrient cycling with the express aim of producing nutrient dense food
- Adding Improving community dynamics and adding biodiversity
- Successfully achieving all these processes significantly fixes
atmospheric CO2, which has a major role in reducing global warming and climate change.
Regenerative farms are not ‘organic-certified’ as they completely eliminate inputs used even by organicsystems.

Land Preparation And Irrigation Setup
Our process begins with thorough land preparation, where we clear, till, and enrich the soil to create the ideal environment for planting. Next, we install a customised irrigation system, ensuring our crops receive optimal water at every stage of growth. This efficient setup maximizes crop yield while conserving water, giving you peace of mind and a healthy, thriving harvest.
First Planting: Valencia Sweet Orange
The journey begins with the planting of Valencia Sweet Orange trees, known for their vibrant flavor and high-quality fruit. Each tree is carefully positioned and planted to ensure optimal growth and spacing. This marks the start of a new cycle, laying the foundation for a healthy orchard that will thrive for years to come.
GUAVA
We planted our guava trees alongside the Valencia Sweet Oranges. Guava is known for its rapid growth and nutrient-rich fruit, complementing our orchard’s diversity. Each guava tree is carefully spaced and planted to ensure it flourishes, contributing to a well-rounded and productive farm.
Sitafal Planting
we planted Sitafal (Cherimoya) trees, known for their creamy, sweet fruit. These trees were strategically placed to thrive in the climate and soil conditions, adding another layer of diversity to our orchard. Sitafal will bring a unique flavor profile to our harvest, enriching the variety of produce we can offer.
Moringa Planting
we planted Moringa trees, known for their nutrient-packed leaves and rapid growth. Moringa is a versatile addition to our farm, offering health benefits and sustainability. These trees are planted with care, ensuring they grow strong and healthy, providing both food and value to the community.
Alphonso Mango Planting
We’ve planted Alphonso mango trees, renowned for their sweet, rich flavor and smooth texture. Known as the "King of Mangoes," these trees are carefully spaced and nurtured to ensure they grow strong and produce high-quality fruit. With their tropical beauty and exceptional taste, Alphonso mangoes will add a prized harvest to our orchard in the years to come.
Food Forest Plantation
Our food forest plantation is designed to mimic nature’s ecosystem, creating a sustainable and diverse environment where multiple layers of crops thrive together. By planting a variety of fruit trees, vegetables, herbs, and edible plants, we aim to build a self-sustaining system that supports biodiversity, enriches the soil, and provides a continuous supply of fresh, healthy food. This approach not only nurtures the land but also enhances the resilience of our farm for the long term.
Our Farming Philosophy
Our Vision
"Regenerative farming is the antidote to 21st century toxicity."
- Dr. Prashant Rajput.
La Naturelle Ferme is a carefully planned regenerative organic farm which gives a variety of foods unique to the seasons. Our bodies and immune systems are greatly influenced by the rhythm of nature and we grow food finely tuned to these ecological processes. The soil’s microbiological profile changes with the seasons and alters the nutrient concentration thereby, influencing our gut microbiome. A faulty gut microbiome is responsible for major inflammatory diseases, including some common cancers. Seasonal fruits produce secondary metabolites and microbes in the soil through antibiosis and their epigenetic signatures produce these nutrients for the season. It is a finely-tuned system and when we perfect the farming, we can directly affect the quality of our lives with the nutrient-dense foods.
