The Taproot Story
Do you know that every corner of our country is home to a variety of indigenous food cultures built on thousands of years of tradition? Let’s celebrate these small, local traditions with Taproot and strive to rescue them from the path of extinction.
Taproot is always in search of small initiatives – carefully chosen, handcrafted, and traditionally produced native collections. Perhaps, on one hand, there is a group of ten farmers dedicated to cultivating ancient indigenous rice varieties without any pesticides.
On the other hand, in some distant corner of the country, there are five or six beekeepers harvesting pure honey without causing any harm to the bees and without any adulteration.
Elsewhere, a small group of women is engaged in preserving the heritage of stone-chakki pressed spices or dheki pressed rice and millets.
As you travel the world, you will discover these positive initiatives and efforts that keep our biodiversity and hope alive.
Biodiversity connects us all. Microbes, insects, animals, soil, water, and wind – everything is intricately bound in an indispensable web of interdependence. Feel this connection within you. Embrace the rhythm of the earth.
Simply say “no” to products that are whitened, brightened, overly polished, and excessively refined, produced en masse using hybrid seeds.
Bring back that forgotten, earthy taste.
Do not disconnect yourself from this interconnectedness; do not try to control Mother Nature. Because no one can stop nature.
Live in togetherness—that is what strengthens your very existence.
The Thought Behind
Before the era of hybrids, pesticides, and synthetic additives, there was a raw, unadulterated origin.
The journey of Taproot began with the aim of rediscovering that indigenous, natural taste.
The food we produce should come directly from the earth, carrying all of nature’s inherent qualities. Thus, let science and technology enhance our path, not redefine it.
With every supporter who joins, this organic movement grows stronger. Together, hand in hand, we can strive for a better tomorrow.
We Are Taproot
The taproot Organization Overview
Established: 2018
Purpose: Serving farm-fresh products directly from producers to consumers.
Taproot emphasizes the importance of indigenous nature, chemical-free produce, and sustainable farming practices.
Our Work: The Taproot is working to connect individuals who produce ecologically sustainable products. From every corner of our country we can work together to make the world a little more sustainable by practicing our rich cultural traditions and knowledge alongside the responsible use of science.
You can be a part of this journey too. If you seek better health, a healing lifestyle and a peaceful mind, it’s time to rethink your daily choices. The food you provide for your child and the meals you prepare for your parents should be pure and nourishing. Choosing indigenous naturally produced food and fibre will help protect you and your family from harm and distractions.
The Hope to grow
Nature provides us with different types of seeds. Farmers have selected some of them for agriculture. These indigenous seeds possess mineral-rich, unique characteristics , different taste and offer greater stability and immunity than hybrid crops.
Traditional farming with these indigenous seeds is simple, sustainable, and cost-effective. However, after straying so far from nature, returning to its purest form seems nearly impossible. Yet, by preserving what remains, we can protect both ourselves and Mother Earth, ensuring a healthier future for generations to come.
Standing against the tide of modern agricultural practices requires immense effort. Indigenous seed collection and preservation, traditional farming, small-scale rural practices, sustainable initiatives, cooperatives, deliverable platforms to the end consumers and individual support all play critical roles in this movement. Though progress is slow and the costs and risks remain high, the participation of like-minded individuals is continuously inspiring hope.
