Kodai Hill Garlic & Vegetables Collective Farming Producer Company Limited

Up here in the hills, things are a bit different than down in the plains. We are Kodai Hill Garlic & Vegetables Collective Farming Producer Company Limited, located at 1/244, Main Road in Poondi P.O. It gets quite chilly in the mornings, and the mist often hangs over the fields until late. Garlic is a big part of what we do, and it takes a lot of patience to get it right. Being a collective means we have a lot of different people involved, and we all meet up at our small place on the Main Road. The building is old and the wooden floorboards sometimes creak when you walk on them. We don't have any of those fancy computers or high-tech setups you see in the city. It’s mostly just notebooks and pens and a lot of talking. We have to watch the weather closely because it changes fast around Poondi. If the rain is too heavy, we can't get much done. We spend a lot of time sorting through vegetables and making sure everything is ready for transport. It’s a lot of lifting and carrying, which keeps us busy. We aren't looking to become some massive corporation. We just want to keep our farming traditions going and make sure the garlic we grow is handled properly. It’s a quiet life, but there’s always something that needs to be fixed or checked.
