CONSUMPTION CREATIVITY - AN ORGANIC NECESSITY


By Dr. R Sudarshan

On one hand, we see people confronting the query 'is it possible to feed the world only with organic?'. On the other hand, we haven't known an organic farmer who can sell even a quarter of what their farms grow. 

The Farmer's House grows tons of fruits and vegetables, but only a fraction is sold. Cabbages, cucumbers, gourds, water apple, mangoes, guava, greens, tamarind, well, sometimes our farms may grow as much as a tenth of what this city can consume but we are unable to engage the public in a consumption dialogue.  We did open a cafe to turn the excess produce into attractive products, but the chef hasn't been able to build a new line of imaginative products to capture people's attention.

We hereby invite interested and passionate organic food enthusiasts to associate with the Farmer's House to experiment with the variety of excess we grow and develop creative ideas of consumption. We are not looking for a business line, but if it evolves with a creative chef, we will support a career for the deserving. But our main intention is to see that the poison-free produce is consumed as widely as possible.

Please message 8105112990, if interested to experiment with the farm produce, that's amongst the cleanest in town. Together, we can deepen and widen a culture of clean consumption in Mysore.

    Shocking note that 75% of your organic produce is neither sold nor handled by Chefs.

    Communicate and find whether Art of Living - Mysore can harvest and lift that excess stuff on a regular basis. You can contact Suresh Babu (mobile # 9844102171) in the matter.

COMMUNITY DIALOGUE - 1

By Dr. R Sudarshan EATING CLEAN: COMMUNITY DIALOGUE - 1;  Featured Speaker - Sindhu Ramachandra;  Friday, 15 July 2022 at 5:30 PM E ating clean is a lifestyle fundamental, easily ignored and abused in the fast lane of tongue temptations. And the long convoluted tube that we call 'gut' is often turned into a gutter that is forced to process what it is not meant for - synthetic food, herbicides, pesticides, and life-threatening substances. Sindhu is a biochemist with work experience from IISc. She pursues data science and AI in the context of biochemistry. An ardent believer in organic farming, she cares for clean foods. And she knows how unclean foods can turn your life upside down. Community Dialogues at the Farmer's House are an engagement with reason to restore the dignity of life. Come, listen, interact and benefit. Attendance is FREE. Register with Gagan at 97421 62956. * * * Farmer's House, Silverfish Books, Kutz Bowl and the Farmer's Market, # 1A, 13th Cross,...

SISTERS OF THE WAR

By Dr. R Sudarshan T hose of us that are born in a land and society of relative peace will never understand the pains and perils of war. The extreme sufferings people undergo for no fault of theirs and their inescapable fate of circumstances are unbelievable stories for us, as we sip from our mugs of comfort coffee. The civil war in Syria is an ongoing reality of our times. Rania Abouzeid writes the real story of two pairs of sisters, surviving the bullets, broken homes, blasted childhood, and a routine of a revolting rut.  Those are real-life stories of how hope works. A reflection on how the one earth and one time that we all share is an unequal opportunity of existence. On the shelf - a mood that grips you and makes you grateful for what you have. For any relevant query, message 81051 12990. * * * Silverfish Books, Farmer's House, # 1A - 13th Cross, Kalidasa Road, VV Mohalla, Mysore.

THE CURIOUS CASE OF CULANTRO

By Dr R Sudarshan Y es. Culantro and not Cilantro. The long distance cousin of coriander that came from Mexico in the middle centuries to Europe and landed in India approximately some 300 to 400 years ago along with its Mediterranean cousin Cilantro, the coriander. Culantro is relatively rare but so much more stronger than coriander that once you are used to this, coriander recedes to a second choice. A couple of Culantro plants have been taken to the farm and are growing impressively well. Probably, there will be lots of seeds in a few weeks, so that we could propagate and feature the leaves in the weekly market too. And one plant of Culantro has prospered well in a pot at the store too.  For any relevant query,  message 81051 12990. * * * Padma Farms, Farmer's House, # 1A - 13th Cross, Kalidasa Road, VV Mohalla, Mysore.
