If you love mangoes, you may want to head to the Farmer’s Shandy on Luz Church Road.
You can choose from a big spread of organic and naturally grown Alphonso and Banganapalle mangoes that are free from chemical based pesticides and fertilizers. This shandy is promoted by P. B. Murali.
Murali is an organic farmer. He grows mangos in his 60 acre farmland at Punnamia village located between East Coast Road and GST road.
He says each year he harvests about 40 to 50 tonnes (nearly 1 lakh fruits) of organic Alphonso and Banganapalle mangoes.
The fruits harvested in his farm are washed in warm water to destroy eggs of flies that might be present on the skin of the fruit. They are dried, packed and sent to various retail customers, restaurants and organic food stores.
Murali says he has been selling the fruit at his shandy for the past 5 years. They are currently sold at Rs.90 per kilo.
Farmer’s Shandy is located at 77/177, Luz Church Road, Mylapore.
Murali can be reached at 93806 91203 or e-mail: pbm1950@gmail.com.
I have tasted their mangoes and vegetables when I was in India. They are very tasty and nominally priced. I would recommend this store
to anybody who wants to eat healthy food.
