Varanashi Organic Farms currently extends for about 100 Acres over two properties, with seven irrigation ponds, as well as a river and a riverlet adjoining one of the properties. Crop plantations are maintained within the natural vegetation of the area, and 60% of the farms is still untouched forest. Crops like Arecanut, Coconut, Cocoa, Nutmeg, Banana, Black Pepper, Jackfruit etc. are grown in a multi-story system. In addition, different types of vegetables, fruits, flowers are also grown. Rice is organically cultivated during the rainy season for sale and our own consumption.
The illustrious story of Varanashi Organic Farms, handed down by over six generations of the Varanashi family, begins more than 200 years ago, when in 1816 King Lingaraju, Ruler of Kodagu, gifts a large piece of land and a big house in the Moodambailu area to one of his favorites, a wiseman by the name of Jyothishi.
Thirumaleshwari Amma, one of the female members of this family, marries Varanashi Krishnayya and settles at Moodambailu. Their son Varanashi Subraya Bhat and grandson Varanashi Krishna Moorthy manage the property in subsequent years and name it Varanashi Farms. Partha Varanashi is the youngest heir in this family to take the family tradition forward. A coach for Team India in the 2019 Aquatic World Championships, he champions movement sports and aquatic education at the farm.
Sahakari Rathna Shri Varanashi Subraya Bhat is the inspiration behind the establishment and the development of Varanashi Development and Research Foundation (VDRF) and its sister concerns. Shri Bhat is a well-known personality in the field of Cooperative movement in South India. He is the founder of CAMPCO Ltd. - today, one among the co-operative giants in India. He was the President of the CAMPCO from its inception in 1972 to 1990.
Inspired by his achievements, his son Dr. Varanashi Krishna Moorthy has promoted the VDRF, VOM, and VAST Centre. Varanashi Farms is the Family Agricultural property. Dr. Ashwini Krishna Moorthy and their son Partha Varanashi are actively involved and equally responsible for the development of the Varanashi Concerns. Partha Varanashi brings movement and aquatic education to the farm (and beyond) through the Varanashi Swimming Academy and Stoked India Adventures.
It is interesting to note that the family name “Varanashi”, incessantly confused with “Varanasi”, does indeed originate from the name of the Indian spiritual capital Benares. However, generations have passed and the Varanashis are now indigenous to Bantwal Taluk of D.K District, Karnataka. Over the years, subsequent generations of Varanashis have proven themselves innovators and visionaries, transforming their ancestral property to keep up with the changing times.
