Two Bandra Girls Buy a Farm is a laugh-out-loud chronicle of what happens when city slickers with zero farming experience decide to 'go organic' in the unpredictable heart of Raigad.\u003cbr\u003e\nWhen Arti said yes to her friend Suzann's hare-brained scheme of buying land, she was pumped with post-lockdown confidence in her green thumb. Tomatoes and chillies were spilling out of her Bandra balcony garden, just like her enthusiasm for the farming life.\u003cbr\u003e\nFrom negotiating with sceptical villagers and unruly cows, every misstep becomes a lesson, and every harvest a tiny miracle. Yet beneath the comedy of errors lies something deeper: a fresh look at what it truly means to work with one's hands, live close to the land and make a small but genuine difference in the world.\u003cbr\u003e\nWitty, warm and wonderfully grounded, Arti's account of her adventures and misadventures with farming is for anyone who's ever dreamed of escaping the city-or at least laughing at someone else's attempt to do so.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nAbout the Author\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nArti Dwarkadas began her career in advertising before joining the dotcom revolution as creative director at rediff.com and later leading OgilvyInteractive India. A certified patisserie from Le Cordon Bleu, London, and a long-time urban balcony gardener, she co- founded Two Bandra Girls Organic Farm in rural Maharashtra in 2021. The ten-acre organic venture reshaped her understanding of food, sustainability and rural life.\u003cbr\u003e\nA lifelong storyteller, she has written extensively on food, travel and the restaurant scene. Two Bandra Girls Buy a Farm brings together her worlds of creativity, observation and hands-on learning, and is her debut book-one that reflects her enduring love for building something from the ground up, whether it's a brand, a story or a tomato plant. She lives in Mumbai with her husband, Sunil.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789371977760\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.5 x 5.5 x 0.6 inches\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Westland Non-Fiction","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51212597592368,"sku":"VarietyBook_9789371977760","price":375.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/81VQxaONXAL.jpg?v=1774237297","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/products\/two-bandra-girls-buy-a-farm-chaos-community-and-crops-in-rural-maharashtra","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
