📍 Grown in the Hills of Meghalaya – Naturally

Cultivated in the pristine Lakadong village of Meghalaya, this turmeric is grown by tribal farmers using traditional heirloom seeds and organic practices. The region's cool climate, rich soil, and clean air make it ideal for producing pure, high-quality turmeric.

From March sowing to January harvest, the process is labor-intensive yet rooted in sustainability — without the use of pesticides or fertilizers. The rhizomes are boiled, sun-dried, and hand-processed to preserve potency.
