Farmers shared their best practices with customers, offering home gardening enthusiasts ideas and tricks in nurturing plants.

Farmers also helped customers understand the nuances of sowing seeds in an in-store activity where customers planted seeds at the Yelahanka and Hebbal stores. Customers were given seed bags to help foster a deeper connection between their interaction with the farmers and their personal home gardening journey.

The journey of food from seed to plate goes through multiple processes. From sowing to germination and successful yields, and the fragmented supply chains that result in fruits and vegetables being shelved in retail outlets, a lot is lost in translation. With the vision of cultivating futures that elevate the well-being of farmers, the environment, and customers, Simpli Namdhari’s took the unique opportunity of Kisan Diwas to help customers connect with farmers, and spread awareness about the importance of understanding agricultural processes and its contribution to society.
