Junnar Women Farmers Producer Company Limited

Junnar is famous for a lot of things, but for us, it’s just home. Junnar Women Farmers Producer Company Limited is a group of us who decided to work together to handle our produce better. We are based over at Mukund Apartment, which is Plot No. 9 and 16 in Alefata. It’s a bit unusual having a farming business in an apartment building, but it works for us. We use the space at G. No. 2940/1 to organize everything. Being women farmers means we have to balance the work in the fields with taking care of our homes and kids. It makes for very long days. We start before the sun is up, getting things ready. Alefata is a busy area with a lot of trucks passing through, which helps when we need to move our goods. We don't have any fancy mission statements or slogans. We just want to get a fair price for what we grow. The soil around Junnar is good, and we try to make the most of it. Sometimes the market prices drop and we get worried, but we talk it through and figure out what to do next. It’s a community effort, really. We share tips on what works and what doesn't. Our office might be small and a bit crowded with paperwork and bags, but it’s where all the decisions happen. We are just local people trying to make a living.
