Don’t just take a break! Take a clean break from bad carbs with millets!
Our partner NGO, SHODH is helping transform the lives of farmers in Bundelkhand, Uttar Pradesh and Shri Sathya Sai District, Andhra Pradesh. Hari Om Rajput, a farmer from Jhansi has two acres of land. One acre out of this is rocky and unsuitable for traditional crops. He struggled with frequent crop failure in this patch due to unpredictable rains. Through SHODH NGO’s intervention, he was introduced to climate-resilient Barnyard Millet. By cultivating this new crop on his previously barren land, he successfully harvested and sold eight quintals at a price above the government’s MSP. This success has not only provided him with a new source of income but has also inspired him to become an advocate for millet cultivation among other farmers in his village.

Day 1 of the Jivitputrika or Jitiya fast, observed for the long life and well being of children, encompasses the tradition of Nahai- Khai. After bathing and pooja, mothers eat a Satwic meal. The stars of this meal are Noni ka saag (purslane), satputiya (a variant of torai) ki sabzi and Madua (Ragi/Finger millet) ki roti. These traditional dishes hold a deep significance. The resilience and strength of these foods is directly symbolic of the resilience and strength of a mother’s love for her children and her hopes for them to be healthy and strong.
This isn’t just a meal; it’s a testament to how generations past intuitively preserved food knowledge and integrated it into meaningful, health-promoting traditions.
