When I became a mom, I started exploring the reasons to go organic. I began paying closer attention to the source of our ingredients, and that’s when I stumbled upon the organic revolution, still in its early stages in India. I must admit, I was a bit skeptical at first. I wondered if it was just a clever marketing gimmick, selling expensive food under the “organic” label.
However, after trying organic food products for a couple of months, I became a true believer. Going organic has been the best decision I’ve made for my family’s health. The reasons to go organic are numerous and compelling. Let me share with you why embracing organic choices can make a significant difference in our well-being.
My Story about Going Organic
My search for organic products started soon after the launch of our baby food store, Little Moppet Foods, in November 2015. I was considering going all out organic with baby food, and with this goal in mind, I began sampling several organic brands in India. That was when my brother in Bangalore suggested Organic Mandya.
Organic Mandya was founded by Madhuchandan, an young IT professional who chucked his comfortable job in the United States to sow the seeds of an organic farming movement in India. To begin with, he started the Mandya Organic Farmers Cooperative Society with the active participation of a group of 270 farmers, who now cultivate and sell their organic farm products profitably. Today, Organic Mandya’s retail outlet on the busy Bengaluru-Mysuru highway sells organic vegetables, cereals and pulses – all fresh from the farm!
As luck would have it, we had already scheduled a weekend getaway at Coorg, so we dropped by the Organic Mandya store by the Mysuru-Bengaluru Highway. We brought home samples of all the ingredients we needed and spent the entire month of January experimenting and testing out the recipes of our baby food products. We even sent samples to some of our customers who absolutely loved them!

Going ariganic is definitely a good idea….. But what when we go out n have outside food won’t that effect….. I mean the child is use to eating organic so definitely outside food is not going to suit him/her
So how do we manage with that
