Grown by the wonderful Kasaraneni family amidst marigolds, bananas, and black rice on their 3rd generation farm. While Mr. Prabhu Kasaraneni’s family has been farming for three generations, he himself is a self-taught organic farmer who began growing heirloom Pragati turmeric in 2015, with assistance from the Indian Institute of Spice Research. This is the spice Sana, the founder of Diaspora Co started the company with! In search of an heirloom turmeric that was regeneratively grown as well as delicious, she was recommended to Mr. Prahbu Kasareneni by the Indian Institute of Spice Research. Prahbu was a young idealistic farmer, and the only one in his area to start growing regeneratively, which initially brought critique from nearby farmers, until they saw how well he was doing. Today, it is still one of the company's most well-loved spices, and for good reason—it's delicious!
Wonderful in all of your favorite recipes, and in hot milk before bed!
