Organic Orthodox Tea! Kinnakorai!
Sunday 08th
June 2025 Day 23185
Another amazing and
interesting week gone by!
After many weeks of
discussions and deliberations, land for the Mini Tea Plant proposed to be set
up by Guru Sidhagiri Farmer Producer Company Limited (GSFPCL) was acquired and
registered at Ooty on Monday 02nd June!
To facilitate the
purchase of land for the Mini Tea Plant (MTP), I too had to purchase the
adjacent plot of land as the Sellers were adamant that both plots have to be
sold at the same time. So now I too own a small tea garden. Plots 11 (for me)
and Plot 114 for GSFPCL’s MTP).

Kinnakorai
village in Kundha Taluk, Nilgiris District, Tamil Nadu, PIN Code
643219. Kinnakorai is a small piece of heaven on earth indeed. One has to
experience it to believe it.
Coimbatore
– Mettupalayam – Kattery – Selas –
Kendhala – Koderi – Kunnakombai –
Manjoor – Bikketti – Thaishola – Kinnakorai
(125 kms, 4 hours)
Alternate route is a shorter one via Geddhai falls. Will be trying this today as we head to Kinnakorai for the Bhoomi Pooja.
First priority is to
clean up the Plots and clear all the overgrown bushes and shrubs (see pic
above). And uncover the hidden tea bushes beneath the overgrowth. This is
planned for the coming week. A lot of hard work waiting ahead, to make these
plots of land ready for the objectives for which they have been purchased.
Then plan and execute the
purchase of machinery, run the pre-production trials and establish the SOPs,
complete the architectural design and construction of the MTP and commence
production runs of Green and Black Orthodox Organic Teas from the MTP. And in
parallel, plan for the proper pruning, manuring and care of the tea bushes,
plan and execute the intercropping options.
An exciting few weeks
ahead. Eagerly waiting to taste the “amrut” tea from the Kinnakorai MTP!
And now Sathu anna and I
leave for Kinnakorai for the Bhoomi Pooja and commencement of clearing the
overgrowth on these two plots!
Shambho!!!
