Our Story
Abja in Sanskrit means "that which is born from water." Water sustains life, and without it there is no life or Green Living!
In 2020 with no prior farming knowledge we started farming at Khatu Shyam ji in Rajasthan, converted sand to soil and founded Abja Organic Farm, an organic certified farm. Using sustainable farming practices, by 2022, we started farming in over 150 acres in Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand.
In 2023 personally experiencing the bouts of climate change and concerned about food security, we decided to launch our new project "Abja Green"; to inspire, educate and help farmers with our knowledge.
