About the experience

Looking to swap another weekend spent in the concrete jungle for an authentic farm experience surrounded by the picturesque sights and fresh air? Well, look no further,  Shoots and Roots- A Traditional Organic Farm is just the place you're looking for. Situated on the fringes of the Bilikal Forest on the south of Bannerghatta National Park, the rustic farm gives you a traditional farming experience. Put aside your laptop and cellphone, and experience the joys of growing and cultivating a farm.  

 Walk down pathways lined with silver oak and teak trees and pluck bananas, mangoes and lemons right of their branches. This 15-acre organic farm features a rural barn-style homestay fitted with simple modern amenities for comfort. You can take a tour of the farm to see how fruits and vegetables grow, learn about beekeeping, vermicomposting, rainwater harvesting, greywater filtering, crop rotation and more! 

 As the days are spent exploring the farmlands and lending your hand to the cultivation process, the evenings are ideal for some fun light sports around the farm followed by a tranquil night of stargazing away from the bright city lights.   If you’re interested in natural spaces and farming, visit this old-school homestay and strengthen your bonds with nature. This rustic farm invites you to drop by with your friends! As a bonus, you can bring your pet along too.
