Sona Organics

ABOUT US

Twelve farms, one handshake

We are not a marketplace and we are not a reseller. We buy whole harvests from growers we know by name, at a price agreed before anything is planted.

OUR STORY

It started because nobody would buy Balbir’s cauliflower

In 2016 Balbir Singh converted four acres outside Verka to organic. Two seasons later he had the certificate, the yields and no buyers — the mandi paid him the same rate as the sprayed crop next door, so the extra cost came straight out of his margin.

We started Sona Organics to solve exactly that: buy the whole harvest, pay a premium fixed in advance, and sell it direct to households who care what is in their food. No auction, no middle layer.

Nine years on, eleven more farms have joined on the same terms, and roughly 1,200 families in Amritsar get a crate from us every week.

WHAT WE HOLD TO

Four rules we don’t bend

Price agreed first

Every farm signs a rate before sowing. If the market crashes, we still pay it.

Nothing sprayed

No synthetic pesticide, herbicide or growth regulator touches anything we sell.

Harvest to order

We cut what has been bought. Nothing enters cold storage, because there is no cold storage.

Crates come back

We collect and reuse every crate. In 2025 that avoided roughly 41,000 cardboard boxes.

MILESTONES

How we got here

Slow, deliberately. We have turned down every offer to stock produce we cannot trace back to a specific field.
