Not just that, you will be told all about the functioning of an organic farm and they even let you try your hand at farm activities. Once you're done tasting juicy strawberries and sweet carrots, head to the dairy section where you can meet farm animals and even feed a cow or two. And while you're at it, don't forget to get your hands on artisanal cheeses which are manufactured here itself using organic cow milk. Trust us when we say this, they are to die for!

Finally, head indoors for a generous lunch spread that consists of a typical North Indian fare, all made using organic ingredients. The team at Tijara Organic Farm believes in simplicity and that is what reflects in the food here—it's straight from the soil, it's simple, it tastes great and there's no oil used anywhere!
