This monsoon I visited a vegetable farm and had an amazing experience.
Most of the people give visit to waterfalls, mountains, rivers, dams, etc. in monsoon season.
But I decided to first visit organic vegetables farm!
These organic farms are located At Karave Village, Plam Beach road, behind T. S. Chanakya (Indian Maritime University), Nerul, Navi Mumbai.
The organic vegetable farm which I visited is the farm which is grown by my Grandmother.
She had put lot of efforts in growing the evergreen organic veggies such as lady's fingers, pumpkin, cucumber, bitter gourd, ridge gourd & bottle gourd.
Here are the pictures which I have clicked of the vegetables grown by my Grandmother along with their benefits:-
1. Lady's finger
The dietary fiber content of an Okra/Lady finger is known to be high and hence it is very good for digestive benefits. Lady finger contains iron and folate and Vitamin K, nutrients that help in treating and avoiding anaemia.
