About
Our Founding Story
Our journey began in 2011 when Rohit Jain visited a small village in Gujarat. He went there to help children get better education but found something unexpected – amazing food! The village food tasted fresh, pure, and delicious. This gave Rohit the idea of connecting these farmers with city people who want healthy, tasty food. Today, Banyan Roots creates a win-win situation.
Gram Swaraj
India’s nourishment comes from villages. At Banyan Roots, we honor farmers and traditional methods that protect land, crops, and nature.
Acharyashree Vidyasagar Maharaj
Banyan Roots draws inspiration from Sant Shiromani Acharya Shri Vidyasagarji Maharaj, whose teachings of non-violence, truth, love, and respect guide all initiatives.

Our Philosophy
We believe better food and healthier communities come from honoring India’s ancient farming wisdom.
These old methods do more than grow nutritious food – they protect the soil, save native seeds, and keep nature in balance.
We stand for farming practices that have kept Indian communities healthy for generations. When we respect the earth and use traditional knowledge, it gives us food that’s good for both body and soul. We support Gram Swaraj (village self-sufficiency), where farming communities can thrive while producing healthy, chemical-free food that connects city people with their roots.

The Beginning — Rooted in a Belief
It all began with a simple truth — food had lost its soul. What once came from the soil, with love and patience, is now produced for speed and profit. We saw farmers struggling, soils drying, and consumers searching for real nourishment.
Our Purpose — More Than Organic
We’re not just an organic brand.
We are a bridge between farmers and conscious consumers,
a collective voice for ethical agriculture, and
a commitment to food that heals, not harms.
At Banyan Roots, our journey began with this simple truth
we:
- Empower over 300+ tribal and rural farmers to adopt sustainable practices.
- Revive indigenous crops and grains that once nourished India’s villages.
- Promote chemical-free, fair-trade farming rooted in respect for nature
- Educate communities to reconnect with their food, culture, and soil.
Our Vision — The Future We’re Growing
We dream of an India where:
- Every farmer earns with dignity
- Every meal is clean and nourishing
- Every community thrives in harmony with the earth.
We’re building this one crop, one farmer, and one conscious customer at a time.
“Because real progress doesn’t come from factories — it grows in fields.”
