About Us
What we do?
Arena Organica is a Social Enterprise working towards sustainable food systems through a network of organic food producers and consumers.
Working as a family(trustee) we
• Persuade, organise, and help farmers to go organic and thus produce purely natural, and chemical-free agricultural products, and
• Buy, process and supply this produce to consumers.
Transparency, Traceability and Fairness form the core of every action taken in the venture.
We also undertake steps to provide training/assistance to farmers in value addition, logistics, packaging, shipments and if needed certifications. Knowledge exchange programme amongst the farmer groups are also organised to move a step closer to sustainability.To bring people in close proximity with the nature/farmers/farms/food production we have started Farm Stays to invite people to witness the production of their food, to know their farmers life and to live Organic Life. Anybody can visit and stay here also work with the farmer. This makes the whole process Public audited and accounted and also leads to trust building among both the farmers and the consumers unto each other connecting the farms/producers with consumers. Thus emerges the organic whole.
We are also attempting to advance and improve the methods of agri-production and processing with new techniques, tools and ways. These techniques, tools and ways are intended to make agriculture viable, innovative and climate-smart– in line with the Government’s mission and the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Our Vision
Vision is to have a healthy Planet Earth.
To save it from the cruelty unleashed by the human race. And the first step to achieve that is to save the land that gives us food. Our vision is to make the present agriculture chemical-free to align it with nature. This will enable people to ‘Live organic, Live healthy’ and save themselves and the Planet
Our Mission
We are working towards raising awareness among the masses about organic production, consumption, processing and supply. This is the need of the hour as going natural is the only solution to the problems varying from health to climate. Your help and support can help us reach our Vision. This is for everyone. We all can participate and contribute in the realization of this vision.

Certifications
We create groups of farmers. Organize them. Persuade and motivate them to grow everything organic/natural– completely free of chemicals. We provide technical assistance wherever required and possible.
Many of our farmers have been doing organic/natural farming for long. Some have been recognized and awarded by the Government and the non-government bodies. Some others have been certified under Pradhanmantri Krishi Vikas Yojna ( PKVY) also.
We get all of our farmers certified from APEDA approved certifying bodies. We purchase the produce of these farmers at premium prices.
The produce is processed locally and marketed. Thus we are making a farmer-driven market of organic products to reduce their burden and improve their lives. This way we also intend to cater to the consumers’ demand for healthy products across the globe. Thus channelizing the benefits to both the farmers and the consumers. For assurance, We can organize a detour for our customer who wishes to experience our fields/ centres and show the entire process.
