Saharia Organic Resort, Jaipur

Welcome to Saharia Organic Resort

In 1992 we bought about 18 hectares of barren farmland and planted more then 10000 trees of various varieties including 2500 Amla (Emblica officinalis) trees, to create a mini forest. In 2006 we plan to plant 5000 trees. With great difficulty we have managed to save the trees from harsh Rajasthan climate, (from 0-45˚C over the course of the year), the trees continue to grow and give fruits.

Slowly and gradually the trees grew bigger, and people came to know about our organic farm and started visiting to see the organic practices.

In 2003 we joined various international organic volunteer organizations (www.wwoof.org) and started receiving volunteers from all over the world. After seeing the success of the organic farming and the volunteers program we have now started 9 rooms, farm stay, on the farm. This is to promote and create awareness amongst the masses for sustainable organic farming and pollution free environment.

Accommodation:

The rooms are all done in earthen style finish of with mud and clay. The roof as you will be able to see from the pictures is of local thatch.

The most exquisite feature of our hospitality has its own natural charm and therapeutic advantages.

This resort for starters is equipped with nine fully functional cottage style rooms and bathrooms all done painstakingly in a style befitting the environment of organic farming.

Minute attention has been paid by us and our helpers and workmen to be in conformity with the nature, even the furniture we provide our guests and volunteers is not polished by chemical paints and varnishes, it is processed by the old theory followed from the olden times in Rajasthan using organic oils and stuff found naturally. The beds have been made by the local artisans in the traditional style.

These rooms stay cool even in very harsh summers and remain warm in severe winters, To top it all even the swimming pool which is a eye pleaser situated in sea of green is cleaned and maintained by organic methods.

Nobody who had seen this barren piece of land will believe what it has become now, Its all because of our and our supporters hard work that this place is what it is now ‘a green oasis’ and now even the villagers near our farm and resort have switched to the methods adopted by us and are fast realizing good economic yields from their corresponding farms.
