Ever got real dirt on your hands?

THAPASU, a journey that began way back in 2016, where we have strived to humbly bring the magic of the Himalayan people and their forests, to your homes in the form of nutrition-rich superfoods. Every produce we work with has by building a community of farmers and wellness enthusiasts through our developmental projects in the Himalayas. A travel tale of self-exploration through the dusty trails of Spitian mountains; the middlelands.?

Thapasu Foods, an agriculture startup was founded and established in the year 2017. Our founder Amshu CR started this organization with a vision of bringing the riches from the Himalayas to the plates of the people sitting there far away in the cities. There is so much magic that nature has bestowed upon us in the form of superfoods. Understanding the keen benefits of these superfoods, and consciously sharing these valuable riches with the world was the way forward and hence Thapasu was conceptualized.

"There is an interesting story behind the inception of our organization", Says Amshu. It all started during her backpacking and travel days to Spiti valley, traversing by foot across the middle lands, looking for a glance of the Himalayan wild mammal - The Yak, she was welcomed by two beautiful young sisters in Kibber village. Those two village girls changed her whole perspective about the simplicity and magical life of mountains. They shared with her about their culture, food, traditions, and their changing summer and winter life. This was the germination of Thapasu as an idea.

It was just a mere desire to bring knowledge and thriller produce to the rest of the world and showcase its nutrition to everyone. Not even that, our Organisation brings forward the revival of heirloom produces through marketing opportunities, and livelihood creation and enhancement to everyone. These beautiful mountains have much more in store other than the beautiful scenic views it showcases and Thapasu realized it well. That’s why we bring you the magical superfoods straight from the Himalayas to your plate directly impacting the unknown and small land-holding farmers of the remote regions of our country.

Right from seabuckthorn berries, to black peas, to morel mushrooms, these organics if consumed, can do wonders to our bodies. Rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals they can be a one-stop preventive solution to all health-related issues. ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

The inception of Thapasu in 2017 marked a journey of preserving knowledge, culture, upbringing lives, and educating the masses about a sustainable way of life and holistic way of living a better life through food and agriculture.
