Beejom

Beejom Beejom is an animal sanctuary and sustainable agricultural farm located in Western Uttar Pradesh; North India. The planting is mostly done with heirloom seeds.

Beejom uses natural farming techniques to grow food. The agricultural practices at Beejom is cow-centric. All the products of the Indian indigenous cows at the farm are used to manufacture organic manure for the fields. The farm hugely promotes indian millets and traditional foods and we see that as the most obvious way of restoring the food security and health of the nation. The farm uses solar power, has rain water harvesting and practices vermi-culture, A bio-gas plant and a cow-urine distillation plant will be soon installed. Our aim is to work with farmers at the grassroot level and help them restore their holdings into organic holistic farms.

Shreevanam - The Food Forest - Diaries 🍀🍀🍀

Triphala means three fruits.

Traditionally called Haritaki, Bhibhitaki and Amalaki in Ayurveda, it is one of the oldest comprehensive health supplements known to man. It is believed to boost immunity, improve digestion, and act as a powerful antioxidant.

For thousands of years, Triphala has been used to treat constipation, inflammation, and skin conditions. It is available in many forms such as powder (churna), capsules, and oils.

The grand dream was always to grow Triphala, and that’s how these trees were planted 8 years ago. Like raising children, we don’t know how the years flew by—and now, in this lovely food forest, all three are grown and fruiting. Truly amazing. 🌱

The key ingredients:
🌺 Amalaki (Amla): Rich source of Vitamin C, boosts immunity with antioxidant properties.
🌺 Haritaki: Balances Vata dosha, supports healthy digestion and nervous system.
🌺 Bibhitaki: Antibacterial, stress-relieving, and promotes hair growth.

🍀 Health Benefits:
🎉 Supports Digestive Health
🎉 Boosts Immunity
🎉 Promotes Skin & Hair Health
🎉 Anti-inflammatory Properties
🎉 Potential Anti-Cancer Effects

🍀 Forms & Usage:
🎉 Powder (Choornam) – mix with honey or soak in water for wound cleansing.
🎉 Capsules – easy to consume with meals.
🎉 Oil (Ghrita) – used for eye care, soothing irritation and dryness.

🍀 Precautions:
Safe in moderation, but excess may cause stomach discomfort. Always consult a doctor or Ayurvedic practitioner before use, especially if pregnant, breastfeeding, or having health conditions.

✨ We may soon have Beejom Triphala on the shelves – limited edition, lovingly grown, and carrying a story. Watch this space. 🙏🏽

When a group of students walk into Beejom, we absolutely love it. 🌿 This group was even more special, as they were final-year B.Sc. Agriculture students from Sharda University.

The theme of the day was Agriculture and Entrepreneurship. Bright, curious, and well-informed, they were a true delight to host. We began with a theory session and PPT, followed by a farm tour. Stalls with our Seed Bank, Dung Ho Project, and Strijan Women Entrepreneurship Group were set up for them to explore. Students clicked photos, took videos, and immersed themselves in the experience.

We wrapped up with a wholesome vegan lunch and an engaging Q&A session. The happy faces and cheerful photos say it all. ✨

There is nothing quite like experiential learning. These are the next generation of innovators, entrepreneurs, and agriculturists, and it was heartwarming to share Beejom with them.

Fuelling bright young minds. 💡

We are open to all kinds of educational visits for schools, colleges, and institutions seeking meaningful, hands-on learning. 🌱

Onam is all about feast, flowers, family and fun. 🌸 The philosophy of Onam centers on unity, prosperity, gratitude, and social harmony. This harvest festival is inspired by the legend of King Mahabali’s benevolent rule and annual return to visit his subjects. Celebrated by one and all in Kerala, it is a festival that truly symbolises an egalitarian society, emphasizing togetherness and celebrating our cultural heritage and community.

So today, to celebrate the festival that actually happened a few weeks ago, we had three groups of people visiting the farm to celebrate Onam and enjoy a vegan sadhya. 🌿

✨ VKMA – The Vasant Kunj Malayalee Association
✨ ONGC – Some senior members from ONGC
✨ Professors from many colleges attended too

The feast was the star! ⭐ The sadhya was a true display of Beejom’s culinary skills. Made by people from many states – and yet not one was a Malayalee! Every dish was prepared vegan, and the challenge of making Avial, Kalan, Pachadi, Kichadi, Pulisseri and Palada Pradhaman without dairy was met with such skill that no one even realised it was all vegan.

The sadhya was eco-friendly too – no bottled water, banana leaves instead of plates, and sugarcane-waste glasses, all of which are compostable. 🌱

There was laughter, dance, music, and tonnes of photos. 📸 Check them out and see for yourself how it all went!

If you’d like to organise such an event and bring together community, do connect with us. All proceeds go towards the animal sanctuary and natural farm. 🌾

Mornings at Beejom as mornings are meant to be.
When the earth wakes up to gentle sunlight and birdsong and yet another day unfurls, this is how Beejom looks. Everyone pauses for the charcha and chai before they go off for their respective chores. A community huddle, reflection and some prayer before life begins for the day. Truly magical. 🌺🌺🌺

Happy Navratri to all 🌸✨

Threshing bajra at Beejom is a reminder of the season’s gifts. 🌾 With winters around the corner, this humble millet is a must-have — warming, nutritious, and deeply satisfying. Every grain we harvest is naturally grown and full of goodness for your winter kitchen.

✨ You can now order Beejom’s bajra atta directly from our store at www.beejom.com.

Three years ago, a small plant of big cardamom traveled with Dhoni, one of our farmers at Shreevanam, all the way from his village to Beejom. It was gently tucked into our food forest, nurtured by the shade of trees, the richness of living soil, and the quiet companionship of other plants.

And today, for the very first time, it has flowered. 🌸

This is not a common sight in Bulandshahr, Uttar Pradesh — a region where cardamom plants don’t usually thrive. But here, amidst the diversity and balance of a food forest, nature shows us her quiet miracles. The delicate blooms are more than just flowers — they are a sign of resilience, adaptation, and the unseen support that plants offer each other when they grow in harmony.

Moments like this remind us that a food forest is not just about planting trees — it is about creating ecosystems where the rare becomes possible and the impossible becomes natural.

We are filled with gratitude and excitement as we witness this journey of a plant finding its home so far away from where it once belonged.

🌿 Because when we grow together, we grow stronger.

This is the season for growing millets, and at Beejom we have been growing them for the last eleven years. 🌾 They are such beautiful and easy crops to grow.

🌱 They don’t need great soil and require very little water.
🌱 No pest seems to attack them.
🌱 The grass is incredible fodder for our cattle, horses, and goats.
🌱 The grain is highly nutritious with a low glycemic index.
🌱 Bajra and Jowar are easy to process as they don’t have an outer husk.
🌱 Kangni (Foxtail Millet), Kodo Millet, and Ragi (Mandua) have husks that are best removed manually. While machines exist, manual cleaning still provides vital income to women who are experts at this task.
🌱 Other nutritious grains we grow are Ramdana (Amaranth), Barley (Jow), and Oats (Jei) — the horses absolutely love them.
🌱 Millets are gluten-free, bird-friendly, and water-efficient — unlike rice, which needs 4000 litres of water per kilo.

Today we harvested our Bajra — a truly nutritious grain from the major millet group that doesn’t need dehusking. With its warm taseer, Bajra is a staple in many states like Rajasthan and Tamil Nadu (where it’s called Kambu). From rotis to porridges, the recipes are endless.

This crop feels extra special because we harvested it against all odds:
🍀 Heavy rains
🍀 Stray cattle
🍀 Nilgai
🍀 Birds who adore our organic fields

🙏 Absolute gratitude for yet another wonderful harvest. In just a few weeks, Bajra will be on your table too. Watch this space to order from us, or better still — come over for a hot, fresh Bajra roti at Beejom!

Onam…. At Braj…….Tajpur Gaon….Western Uttar Pradesh;
The story of two states at Beejom.
As different as they can be from one another.

For a diverse group most of whom thrive on roti, never travelled south or eaten this cuisine; this chawal and coconut laden Kerala meal is always an experience.
But the common thread as usual drew us all together….
🍀Harvest
🍀Thanksgiving
🍀Blessing and
🍀Gratitude

Then it was easy. The joy, colour, enthusiasm and camaraderie just shone through.
Onam just happened to a group of diverse people from seven states today; and how!

Fun Fact – The Sadhya was actually cooked by a team from which not even one was from Kerala. 😀

Happy happy Onam Folks. The Harvest at Beejom has just begun.

Yesterday we had the Alumni of The Delhi School of Social Work visit Beejom. 🌿

Considering they were senior members of an academic discipline dedicated to promoting social change, we were very excited to host them.

Their journey began at The Beejom Gram Sanctuary in Tajpur, where we shared the story of our project and our vision for the future. A hearty vegan lunch and a farm walk followed, bringing alive all the elements that Beejom stands for.

Later, we moved to Shreevanam – our food forest by Beejom – where high tea in the light drizzle set the perfect mood for a forest walk. 🍃☕

The participants were incredible – enthusiastic, thoughtful, and deeply informed. Their valuable ideas and contributions will surely find their way into our work. 💚

Always delighted to see the community grow and connect in such meaningful ways.

✨ This week at the Beejom Gram Sanctuary we welcomed students from Woodbridge Preparatory School, Thornhill, South Africa. 🌍💚

It was a joy to watch these bright young minds dive into the rhythm of the farm—pressing fresh sugarcane juice, learning about crops, trying pottery, making seed balls, playing village games, riding with our gentle Kundan, and meeting our animals with so much love and respect. 🐂🐓🌿

For us, this was not just a visit but a coming together across cultures—young people curious to experience the heart of rural India, its traditions and its simplicity, beyond the tourist map. 🌱✨

At Beejom, we welcome schools to explore nature as a living classroom. Farm walks, shramdaan in the fields, animal interactions, and hands-on experiments in composting, bio-fuels, solar cooking, microbes, and seed sovereignty—every activity is an invitation to learn through experience.

💚 Facilities include: air-conditioned learning spaces, clean toilets, RO water, vaccinated animals, and farm-style vegan food.
