Description

Harvested in the high-altitude regions of Uttarakhand, the House of Himalayas barnyard millet, locally known as pahadi jhangora, is a treasured heirloom grain cultivated at altitudes of 600-1500 metres. Jhangora is naturally rich in calcium, protein, dietary fibre, and essential micronutrients, making it a nutritional powerhouse for modern diets. It is low in glycaemic index, supporting blood sugar regulation, making it an ideal choice for diabetics, while its gluten-free nature suits those with coeliac or gluten sensitivities. What sets this millet apart is its origin story; it is grown and processed by over 880 women farmers from 80 self-help groups in the Rudraprayag district, using traditional organic methods without the use of harmful chemicals, synthetic fertilisers, or pesticides. Certified organic by Jaivik Bharat, this millet not only preserves health but also the integrity of the Himalayan ecosystem. Unlike commercial millets, jhangora is a slow-maturing heirloom crop, cultivated patiently for over six months. This longer growth cycle enhances its aromatic, nutty flavour and boosts its nutritional richness, offering you a grain that's as wholesome as it is flavourful. Whether you use it for traditional dishes, porridges, or healthy grain bowls, House of Himalayas barnyard millet brings the taste of Himalayan heritage to your plate while empowering the women who grow it.
