Founded by Ms.Niharika Bhargava and Mr.Aditya Bhargava in the year 2017, The little farm is into pickles, chutneys, cold pressed oils, spices, and some seasonal sharbat, Started right in the home kitchen with the founder’s father’s recipes as she saw that there are people looking for homemade pickles in the market but cannot easily find them and what’s available in the market is filled with additives and preservatives.

“My vision is that if we can consume ketchup in India why can’t we consume pickles worldwide” says the founder

Ms.Niharika had told “My mission with this company is to make this the number 1 gourmet pickle brand in the country that doesn’t use any preservatives”  to Jobifynn

How did The Little Farm start?

The founder realized that pickles are at the dining table be it any household but to sum it up someone who is looking for homemade, quality & tasty products that their mom / grand-mom used to make but can’t find them in easily in the market and don’t have the time to make it but can afford it

The factory-made pickles available in the market are filled with preservatives and do not have the same taste or appeal as homemade pickles. Housewives that sell pickles have very limited customer reach and business scalability. That’s why The Little Farm co., we do preservative-free pickles using nostalgic recipes and sundry them’, was told by Ms.Niharika

Slowly this Gurugram-based startup moved to the farms and now works with many farmer networks.
