Where we buy it
Haldwani, Nainital, Uttarakhand
Haldwani is the gateway market for the Kumaon hills, where barnyard millet (jhangora) and buckwheat are grown.
The Kumaon and Garhwal hills of Uttarakhand.
We buy vari upvas rice directly at Haldwani during peak arrivals, before the lots move to Ahmedabad for processing and packing. Buying at the source market means the widest choice of lots and no trader margin between the farmer and our customer, which is how we hold both quality and price.
