About Vaidehi Farm
A working farm near Kumarganj where gerberas grow alongside food crops, fruit plants, an apiary and an extensive collection of ornamental plants.
Our story
Vaidehi Farm is a working farm near Kumarganj in Uttar Pradesh. Gerberas grow in polyhouses beside food crops, fruit plants, a small apiary and an ornamental collection.
The farm brings together protected flower cultivation, seasonal harvests and a growing world of plants, with rooms for guests who want to stay close to this work.
We sell by enquiry: current quantities, packing and fulfilment are confirmed with the farm team, not listed as a shop.
The name Vaidehi is a name of Sita. For us it stands for patience, care and respect for the earth.
