Our Story

Journey.. We Started

Our journey started in Ekkambi, a small village in the heart of Western Ghats. A farming village that is sparsely populated with lush green areca, pepper, Elaichi, mango, cashew and paddy fields.

Avinya Farms stood there among many since 1900's. This ancestral farm was traditionally maintained and developed by our father Achyut Vishnu Nayak, where the name Avinya Originated. When the world moved towards chemicals, Avinya Farms maintained and believed in Organic farming. Chemical and pesticides never entered our premise. In 2022, After Covid-19 when world was looking back at organic and clean food, we started providing organic manure to new age farmers spreading awareness and importance of Organic farming.

We started as Non Branded, Farmer to Farmer entity. Thus, taking baby steps towards our Organic Journey.
