Be at Peace!

Welcome to Lakshmi Farmstead.

Be with the Trees

" The leaf of every tree brings a message from the unseen world. Look, every falling leaf is a blessing. " ~Rumi

​At Lakshmi Farmstead, we dream and strive to live in harmony with Nature. We are planting trees, in many ways we could think of. Miyawaki methods are carefully studied and we are about to grow a Miyawaki Forest; joining the afforestation drive across the globe.

We have already planted 100+ wild trees, deciduous trees, fruit trees, evergreen trees, flower trees, medicinal trees... Trees are ecstatic! This is our humble effort to address Climate Change!

Be with Yourself

Be at a place you choose to be with You! Be free... you could sing, dance, read, write, paint, make things, cook, meditate, play, cultivate, chat, learn, watch films, work...

You could walk approximately 2km through the trail routes we carved out. An off-road bicycle trail, of course a short one, but with so many tactical curves and slopes could also be dared. We wish to extend the trail through even more dramatic terrain adjacent. Then ours might be a 4km loop.

We soulfully welcome everyone to live and experience an uncomplicated life!

Be at Home

After all that day you are accommodated and caressed by the two Homes; "The Rune" and "The Root". A farmstead lifestyle you are about to live, let it be a day, a week, a month, or even a year, you could experience an alternate lifestyle within nature.

We do have two traditional houses to host you with very essential setups like a Kitchen, vegetable garden, bunk beds, fish room, home theatre, etc

Also, you may choose our Farm Stays as a “Work from Farm” destination at these ill-fated days of the pandemic, totally isolated and safe! .

Our Projects and On-going Activities

Be a part of our daily chores ranging from feeding sparrows to caring for our tree saplings to fishing and grilling to camping to off-road biking to meditating to taming our mighty Dasha the Doggie 🙂

Farm Stay

Extending a warm welcome to you to our two Farm Stays “The Rune” and “The Root”, to live and experience a farmstead lifestyle. Also, you may choose our Farm Stays as a “Work from Farm” destination.

Vegetable Garden

We try to grow a diverse variety of vegetables, native and exotic, all around the season. Rain patterns, time of the year it rains and the quantity it pours CHANGED these days and it directly affects the growing.

Free Range Poultry

A bunch of hens and roosters (fee range local breeds) Guinea fowls and Turkey are raised for egg and meat. We make all these available to the local consumers in excess.

Aquaculture

Edible and ornamental fishes are reared and harvested. It is so fun when we fish and grill just near our pond. We love Aquascaping too! and it’s one service we do for our fellow fishkeepers!

Kennel

It’s our “Dasha the Rott” only at the moment. We are planning to get one or two local breeds like “Malayan and Kollivarayan”.

Aviary

We do have some lovely budgies and finches flying across our spacious walk-in aviary. You won’t look at a watch whilst watching them on the branches of a dead tree, up-close!

Off-Road Bicycle Trail

Bikes are cool when it becomes one with us! We have a short but challenging trail track with some highly tactical curves, slopes and steeps. Get your bikes and safety gear.. lets ride…

Miyavaki Forest

The answer we found to catalyze afforestation and see a forest grow in our lifetime. Climate Change needs to be addressed in all possible ways.

We appreciate and value your support!

We extend our warm welcome to every happy soul getting here and this is what they told us...

"The warmth of camp fire along with friends and beers with chicken and fish on grill, wants you to freeze the time.  If you are lucky and awake, real showstoppers are the Jackals in the woods, who would be howling all together for a moment to create a stupendous symphony with the crack of dawn.
Lakshmi Farmstead will  give you  a new perception about  your time."

"If you love nature, love the sounds of nature, Lakshmi Farmstead is a right place to stay. I stayed at this place for a week with my writer friend. Such a wonderful experience..we watched films, read books, and enjoyed the blessings of mother nature."

ഒരു പ്രൊജക്റ്റ് കംപ്ലീറ്റ് ചെയ്യാൻ വേണ്ടിയാണു ആദ്യം ഈ സ്ഥലത്തു എത്തിപ്പെട്ടത് . മനസ് മടുത്തിരുന്ന സമയത്തായിരുന്നു ആ താമസത്തിന്റെ തുടക്കം . ആദ്യ ദിവസം കൊണ്ടുതന്നെ ഇവുടത്തെ അന്തരീക്ഷം എനിക്ക് പുതിയ ചിന്തകൾ സമ്മാനിച്ചു. Its a better place to explore the nature in you!
