In the middle of intense urban development, corporatization and fast-paced lifestyle, comes a new way of life. A life we’ve long forgotten. A life that
Celebrating an organic way of life
connects past with the present. A life that is vital not just for our future but for the future of the Earth and humanity in general. Presenting Organo - for the passionate and for the conscious.
Organo is for those who are looking for an alternative urban, self-sustainable and healthy lifestyle, which respects nature and its resources without compromising on their comforts and conveniences. In other words, it is a community where residents live a life connected to the nature.
They are professionals by the weekday and community farmers by the weekend. They grow their own vegetables and fruits, breed their own chicken and raise their own cattle for fresh milk. Apart from this, they engage in nature’s bounty with serene pockets of mini forests, landscaping and water bodies that are habitats for birds, animals, insects and aqua life. A new-age urban community driven passionately by the ethos of “agro-culture and sustainable organic farming”, Organo has developed India’s Largest collective Organic Farming Community. Thriving on the concept of ‘farm-to-table’, Organo offers its residents the best of both worlds - an urban
lifestyle entrenched with the finer nuances of a rural life. The community uses the best of technology and nature for effective and productive organic farming. Spread across 35-acres in the lush green bio-conservation zone of Hyderabad - 9 kms. from APPA Junction on the Himayath Sagar - Chevella Road, it is for those who respect nature’s ways and want to lead a life of selfreliance through a completely sustainable organic way of living. It has been designed as a holistic farm, where farming is practiced at various levels. It features community farming, personal farming, nursery, animal husbandry, forest plantation, medicinal
plantation, aqua farming, api culture etc. Apart from a 16.5-acres community farm dedicated to various fruits and vegetables, every resident will have open spaces in their own farm plot to indulge in their choice of vegetables and fruits. Together, all these greatly benefit the residents in leading a sustainable and healthy lifestyle. A lot of research and detailing has gone into the design of the project to ensure that it is viable and appropriate for the residents in every which way. A group of passionate architects, organic farming professionals, organic product makers and other experts from diverse and related fields have come together to make Organo a
pioneering model that will inspire a whole generation to shift to the organic way of life. It is an earnest attempt to re-establish connection with the lost thread of value systems, indigenous knowledge and technologies native to our land and harmonizing it to today’s necessities. This should be the start of a change that will help in conservation and enhancement of ecology in the surroundings and may be even further, in days to come.

“Stop the world, I want to get off.” As the world is accelerating on a fasttrack, we are playing the catch up game, trying to match pace with pace. One thing we need to ask ourselves, are we progressing with the world or are we losing the connection with life? Are we gaining more than what we are losing or is it vice-versa? In trying to beat the world, we have come too far. All those corner offices with city-views, closed door meetings, frequent flier programmes, deadlines and growth charts have definitely done their bit to add a sense of security to our lives. But is that it? What is it that we are looking for? Does our search end with the pinnacle of success or is it more? Today, after reaching the peak, if we look back and ask
ourselves - have I made a connection with life? The answer is a resounding ‘no.’ Human lives are all about establishing a connection. That’s what we are searching for. Connection with people - ourselves, family, community, friends, with food, with places, with nature and in the process, with life. We all want to live a connected life. The desire to connect is not new. Traditionally, all our lives were connected in the past. People were connected to their cultures, to people, to places, to their lives. Extended families lived under one roof, children grew up with their cousins and played with them, hence they were connected. Most people grew their own veggies and fruits. Backyard veggie gardens
were a norm. Many had their cows in their houses for milk, curd and butter. Some families had poultry. So people used fresh produce and meat to make traditional recipes. Everyone was involved in cooking and dinner was a social event. Hence, people had connection with their food. Similarly, people had strong connections with the places they lived and cultures they were bred in. Rapid-paced life has weakened these connections. Technological advancements have changed the way we live and work, which is a good thing in many ways. But it has made us less connected to living and life than it has been in the past. We are constantly living in a fast-forward motion, where we are often
overscheduled, stressed and rushing towards something. This rush is not just restricted to our work. We rush our family time, our food and even our recreation. Organo is an idea that was born out of a strong view to slow down, to recapture the state of connectedness and to re-establish our link with the natural world and its soulful rhythms.
We have left life far behind in our pursuit to success and prosperity

An important cultural revolution whereby diversity and biodiversity are embraced and chemical toxins and environmental harm are radically reduced.
Re-establishing relationship with soil Organic Farming is a phenomenon that has captured the imagination of people across the globe. Millions of people right from high-profile corporate honchos to eco-sensible urbanites to large-scale communities, all have taken to organic farming at various levels. Some do it as a passion, some as a weekend activity, some as a means to earn a living and some as a relentless drive towards a greener earth.
Farm objectives are invigorating and are beneficial to health
Organic farming, in simple terms, follows agricultural principles that rely on natural systems and inputs to keep the soil healthy in order to keep plants and surroundings healthy. Many believe, organic farming is far superior to modern systems when it comes to building, maintaining and replenishing the health of the soil. When one considers, energy usage, and human health, it's clear that organic
farming is more sustainable. Breaking away from the modern farming protocols, this system of farming adopts the most environment-friendly and professional way of cultivation. Renewable power generation, water harvesting and conservation, expert supervision with a processdriven approach, incentivized employment of workforce with
proper growth ladder and expansive knowledge pool, all contribute to make it a more viable farming option for many. It also has some fundamental effects on our personal health as well as the overall health of the planet. This system of farming helps in many ways. Keeping chemicals out of air, water, soil and our bodies:
Organic farming and food promote a less toxic environment for all living things. Since the usage of pesticides and other toxic materials practically does not exist and a more nature-aided approach is adopted, the air, water and soil thrives in a cleaner environment, which in turn is reflected in the produce and also the health of the people who consume.
Watch the video on Youtube
Dr. Syamasundar Reddy Organic Farming Expert http://bit.ly/1voUPG5
talks about the importance of the health of the soil and organic farming.
Reducing off-farm pollution: Modern agriculture, due to heavy usage of pesticides and synthetic fertilizers, not only singularly pollute the farmland and farm workers, but also the environmental downstream. Pesticide drifts affects non-farm communities with odorless and invisible poisons. Delicate environments are more susceptible to such toxic attacks without the knowledge of its inhabitants. With organic farming such off-farm pollution can be avoided straight away. Protecting future generations: Studies show that infants are exposed to hundreds of harmful chemicals even before they are born. As we face the drastic after-effects of generations of exposure to agricultural chemicals, we can protect our future generations by
supporting organic farming and its products.
food also tastes good, which is truly, a cherry on the top.
Building healthy soil: Mono-cropping and chemical fertilizer dependency has taken a toll with heavy loss of top soil. Added to this is an equally disturbing loss of micronutrients and minerals in fruits and vegetables. Feeding the soil with organic matter instead of synthetic fertilizers has proven to increase nutrients in produce, with higher levels of vitamins and minerals.
Promoting bio-diversity: An organic farm is like reforestation. They are thriving with diverse habitats for various animal, bird and insect groups. Indigenous animals and birds find them a safe haven while beneficial insects allow for greater balance. Thus, a healthy combination of inhabitant groups ensure constant connection with the buzz of the nature.
Making food taste yummier: Research shows that food tastes better when raised in harmony with the nature. Organic food is all about tastes in sync with the nature. Also, research verifies that organic food is often lower in nitrates and higher in antioxidants. So, apart from all its healthy benefits, organic
Celebrating the culture of agriculture: Food is a ‘language’ spoken in every culture. Making this language organic allows for an important cultural revolution whereby diversity and biodiversity are embraced and chemical toxins and environmental harm are
radically reduced. The simple act of saving one seed from extinction could be an act of biological and cultural conservation.
I would like to see people more aware of where their food comes from. I would like to see small farmers empowered. I feed my daughter almost exclusively organic food. - Anthony Bourdain (Chef, Author, TV personality)

Organic tonics for the soil Rejuvenating, Fortifying, Natural
Alternatively, we also let earthworms do the soil enrichment job. By their activity in the soil, earthworms offer many benefits: increased nutrient availability, better drainage, and a more stable soil structure, all of which help improve farm productivity. And not to mention, our very own ‘jeevamrutham', an organic manure. Long before mentioned in Vedic
manuscripts, it constitutes a mixture of cow urine, neem leaves, cow dung, and few such natural ingredients, which are locally available in plenty, and have been proved to have strong medicinal, and soil enriching properties and they are used for effective revitalizing the soil. A healthy soil gives a healthy produce. We promote the philosophy of ‘zero toxic living’ and a
well-organized waste management system is essential for such a lifestyle. Being a 100% sustainable and self-reliant community, Organo has an efficient waste management system in place. The system supports “segregation at the source” formula, whereby all the residents are encouraged to segregate biodegradable and non-biodegradable wastes before giving for disposal.
“To forget how to tend the soils is to forget ourselves."- Mahatma Gandhi
Our farmers prepare organic tonics for the soil like Jeevamrutham, Panchagavya and Amruth Pani made from locally available material, including neem, castor, cow urine and dung.
Organic farming, by definition, is a form of agriculture that relies on techniques such as crop rotation, green manure, compost and biological pest control. The system does not promote use of chemicals and other toxic material to keep the crops away from the pests.
Did you know that December 5, is World Soil Day, and Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) has declared, that 2015 will be the International Year of Soils?
Keeping the same tradition going, farmers at Organo adopt a natural approach to deal with such challenges. Our organic farming methods ensure, soil remains healthy and retains fertile, round the year. All proven traditional and ageold methods are best adopted to enrich soil vitality, something remained our top priority. And we believe in a philosophy, ‘give some time for nature to recover, and it'll come back stronger than ever. We leave some piece of land for some time to recover after a harvest season, in the due course of time it’ll regain its original soil strength and could be ready for tilling for the next season.
Earth & Soil
By doing so, the residents not only contribute to a healthier environment but also in saving the planet.
Healthy soil is the foundation of the food system. It produces healthy crops that in turn nourish people

A pledge to bring the sparrow back in our homes.
Where has the sparrow gone?
The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) - the world's leading authority on biodiversity - estimates that in 2012 - 41% of all amphibians, 33% of all reef-building corals, 25% of all mammals and 13% of all birds are at imminent risk of extinction. Organo pledges to energize biodiversity. The sparrow is back at Organo. Come greet it, today!
This feathered friend of our backyard has disappeared. We have driven our friend away.
Where are they? Our gentle little guests. Every morning they wake us up with a familiar tune, Perched on ledges and lofts, they hop right inside our houses and in the balconies the whole day, full of life. Taking occasional tiny bites from our leftover supper. Nesting on low branches, in our homes and in sheds, they put a smile on our faces us no matter what. Sparrows have been an integral part of our growing up years. Knowingly or unknowingly, they’ve been our guests who greet us every day, our family
who share our home and food, our friends who never leave us alone. Their cute and chirpy presence, once a regularity is now a rarity. Once aplenty, now it hard to find even one in today’s urban environment. All this happened in a span of just a few years. Sparrows were mostly seen around human habitats. Earlier constructions allowed sparrows to nest in nooks and corners, but modern-day constructions don’t have space for birds. Also, with agricultural land moving away from the city, finding food
in the concrete jungle is not easy for them. Also evidence suggests that heavy vehicular pollution and cell phone tower radiation have impacted their existence. But, the fact that these birds are still seen in the outskirts where there is less pollution and radiation, gives us hope. Organo aims to bring back the days of the sparrow. It actively supports the concepts of miniforest and little ponds to collect rain water and divert them to small wetlands, where indigenous aquatic plants can

Risk Is In The Air
Our furniture that we love so much and cuddle in everyday could be a major culprit. At least, the ones purchased before 2006 contain chemicals used as flame retardants which send harmful toxins into the air. Air fresheners that we use to spread aroma into our lives are capable of spreading harmful toxins. They contain noxious chemicals that can disrupt hormone function in babies and children, interfere with reproductive development and aggravate respiratory ailments such as asthma. Candles light up our home and add a unique touch of romance to our evenings, but they also trigger off perilous carcinogens into the air. Inkjet printers release fertility-robbing chemicals. Everyone at home are at risk when it comes to indoor air pollutants, but elders and
housewives suffer the most as they spend majority of their time indoors. But the air quality in schools is also no better, leaving even the children, who at their tender age are vulnerable, at risk of contacting serious health ailments, especially the respiratory ones.
Organo residents. Neem, as described in Ayurveda's prime text, the Chakraka Samhita, as a Sarva Roga Nivarini (that which keeps all diseases at bay). Its extracts have been in use in the Ayurvedic tradition since thousands of years for maintaining health and over all well-being.
Being a farming community, Organo is filled with vast farm lands, elaborate landscapes, trees, flora and fauna that not only improve the surrounding eco-system but also rise in the quality of life. They also help in modifying temperatures, enhancing outdoor and indoor air quality and increasing bio-diversity. Exposure to greenery can also improve peoples' physiology and mental health. Also, the presence of a large number of Neem Trees is a major advantage for
In the past, it was possible to achieve natural ventilation in our homes just by opening a widow. However, with the advent of “efficient� homes and urban lifestyles, it is becoming increasingly difficult to stay away from air pollutants. At Organo, we tried to recreate the past by designing homes that are high on natural ventilation. You can access fresh air and sunlight right from your home. Organo, being a 100% eco-friendly community in every which way, completely eliminates the possibility air
pollution, both outdoor and indoor. Thus, ensuring purity in air and good health in life for the residents.
Particulate matter pollution has risen almost three times faster than previously expected in Hyderabad. Though faring better than cities like Delhi, where particulate matter pollution has risen by an astronomical four times, the rise in the city is still among the highest in the world.
Polluted air is the reason for illness and poor health. Organo provides the solution.
As per the reports, the air pollution has gone up drastically in most of the metros including Hyderabad.

What is collective farming?
Pooling of knowledge systems
Grid- free power
We have all had those spurts of phases when we wanted to become farmers or meddle with our home technologies to just run appliances with solar power. But, the maintenance, upkeep, the research time required for being able to do it is not our everyday luxury. Organo solves this with expert care for every indulgence to become self-sustainable.
To be self-reliable for energy needs is a far off aspiration even for major corporations as the sheer scale involved to be able to do that makes it impractical. This can be solved when more than 50 families come together a micro grid, sharing power with a backup as the grid power can be established.
Water security Water is a commodity that is a regional resource. Water management techniques like rain water conservation work efficiently only when applied to a large parcel of land.
Labor management
Why is Collective farming better?
Indulgences like farm living need a workforce to maintain continuity in farming. With a structured workforce that has an organized pay structure Organo manages to have a work force that is reliable.
Security No amount of high tech security measures can render the same peace of mind that a group of families living together can provide. A sense of belonging to a group provides reassurance to all.
Organo Collective Farming It is a farmer’s community that shares farming related infrastructure while enjoying the fruits of collective living. The profits of the farms are divided among its members. Collective farming has been successful where it is adopted as a choice in several countries.
At Organo, we explore innovative organic farming methods by employing farming experts, to maximize the efficiency and effectiveness, in addition to enhancing the health of our community and the soil.
It is high time the government explores innovative ways to incentivise farmers to come together in a collective way. It will change their economics, their ability to use technology, their ability to manage risk, and finally the way they negotiate to get the best prices - V.G. Siddhartha, Chairman, Amalgamated Bean Coffee Trading Company (Cafe Coffee Day), India

SOWING THE
SEEDS OF CHANGE
People and the way they live are important aspects of the community, their interactions within and outside. Their involvement in social welfare is an essential criterion.
WITH
‘SAPTHA PATHAS’ The Saptha Pathas maintain a dynamic balance and harmonize nature’s grand symphony. Organo seamlessly integrates these seven strands of sustainable living - Food, Water, Earth, Energy, Shelter, Air and People.
Self reliant 100% net -zero clean tech energy systems designed to meet the community’s loads.
A responsibility called Earth Earth is not only the common heritage of all humankind but also the ultimate source of life. We need to acknowledge that and become more mindful of our attitudes and actions. Today, the earth stands so victimized that we can no longer drink her waters and often cannot breathe her air. By over-exploiting its resources we are undermining the basis of our own life, All around signs abound of the destruction caused by human activity and of the degradation of nature. Therefore, the protection and conservation of the earth is not a question of morality or ethics but a question of our survival. How we respond to the challenge will affect not only this generation but also many generations to come. We need to slow down and fully appreciate the earth’s abundance. We can take at least a little time every day to be outdoors and open ourselves to nature’s gentle teachings.
So, how does it work? Organo runs the farming community where the residents share farming related infrastructure while enjoying the fruits of collective living. Now for the big questions How does the whole thing work? Do residents have to do all the farming? Will there be any kind of support or assistance? What about the farming infrastructure? Organo, being a farming community, will have residents playing an active role in the faming process. But there will
be a core team of professionals and a solid workforce, recruited from nearby villages, who’ll be taking care of the entire farming procedure from the beginning to the end. Professional handling: Organo is a professional farm & facility management company that will manage the farm and its activities. Organo would be developing an employed farm workforce, comprising organic farming experts and local farmers, who’ll be operating in a process driven environment and will be
offered incentivized compensation along with perks and benefits. Staff support: All the workers/farmers on the site will be provided with their ancillary spaces, residences and sleeping quarters. Infrastructure: Farming implements required to farm such as tractor with all its necessary accessories, a shredder, etc., are all provided on the site along with their workshop/garage areas.
The Organo shelters are designed to optimize the spaces and to encourage better interaction with nature.
Revenue generation: Organo will also ensure that all the home-grown supplies after fulfilling the needs of the community, will be put in the market and income is generated. Revenue sharing: Profits generated from the sale of the supplies will be shared on credits basis amongst all members.

Organo’s Naandi is located right in the middle of the lush green bio conservation zone of Hyderabad. Just 9 kms. from APPA Junction on the Himayath Sagar - Chevella Road, there can be no better location in the city that can so flawlessly align with Organo’s vision.
Quietly nestled in a location that has so many advantages, Organo lives up to its promise of delivering a selfsustainable lifestyle, without compromising on the conveniences of a city life.
Just 9 kms. from APPA Junction on the Himayath Sagar - Chevella Road
Every city has a few bio conservation zones that are considered ideal for farming. These areas are earmarked by the government based on natural, ecological and cultural values. These areas are also believed to provide environmental balance to the surrounding areas affected by urbanization. The surrounding catchment area includes the city’s drinking water resources, which according to the provisions of GO 111, is being developed as a massive green-belt and protected from any kind of acidification.
Land-by-Laws says: • The GO 111 prevents any activity that will cause pollution in that area. It prohibits all industries, major hotels, residential colonies or other establishments from generating pollution. • The water is not to be obstructed in the catchment area. Appropriate measures shall be taken to protect water flowing in the lakes. • Any environmentally harming pesticides or fertilizers should not be used. The area has to be devoid of any soil and water
pollution, due to chemicals. • No affluent wastes or pollutants will be released into the environment. Appropriate waste management facilities should be in place. Located 5 kms. on to the state highway (no. 4), away from the frenzy of the ORR development, Organo is well protected from pollution and traffic congestion even in the future. Still, it is not completely cut-off from the city. Within just 3 km. radius, the residents can access various cultural amenities including medical facilities, international schools, colleges, shopping, entertainment centres, play areas, hotels & resorts etc.
Moreover, noted gated communities are just 10 kms. away and the IT/business corridor is just a 20 min. pleasurable drive from the site. The location may be out of the city but the well-maintained and traffic free roads reduce the travel time drastically. Also, the sight of the greenery all around will help the travel time go by very quickly. The site’s proximity to APPA Junction, Rajendra Nagar and ORR help in accessing prominent areas like Gachibowli & Hitech City faster as the roads are well-planned and efficiently connected.

India is the birthplace of alternative medicinal systems such as Ayurveda, Siddha and Homeopathy which use medications derived from plants. As per the reports, there are more than 15000 medicinal plant species that contribute to making of these traditional medicines. They provide herbal cures for several health ailments as well as maintaining general health and wellbeing. Organo promotes passive heath care through its medicinal plantations, interspersed with the forest zone on the
south-east corner, including traditional Indian medicinal plants like Ashwagandha, Velaga, Tellamamadi etc. Ashwagandha is one of the most powerful medicinal plants and is being used for more than 3000 years. The plant promotes sleep, balances the nervous system and restores strength. Similarly, Velaga, Tellamamadi and others are also proven ingredients that have immense positive impact on human health.

Organo’s Animal Husbandry facility follows the Vedic farming practices where the sacred cow (referred as Gomaata) takes the centre stage. The cow’s faeces are proven to have amazing medicinal value that make for great food and medicine for the crops. Adopting the same approach, plant care and nutrient supply to the farm is made organically with manures prepared from the cattle faeces in the well-appointed animal husbandry unit. The residents will have the unique opportunity to enjoy Organic dairy products straight from the farm.

Aqua culture forms a key component of farming at Organo. The farm pond not only adds beauty to the home landscape, not to mention the relaxing, soothing sounds of the water stream, it is also used for aqua culture to complete the Aquaponic Cycle to make better nutrient supply for the plants. This involves a process where the bacteria act as a carburetor that takes the otherwise unusable fish waste and creates a near perfect plant fertilizer.

There was a time when we all had backyards to run around, trees to climb and fall, fruits to pluck and eat and so much more that filled our lives with activity, interaction, energy and above all happiness. But modern-day residential units have changed all that. With lesser space to thrive in, a tiny balcony that is supposed to double up as a backyard, recreation zone, plants area etc., practically no greens for as long as you can see and above all, a lifestyle that has made our lives a factory-style assembly line. But the good news is, people are getting more eco-conscious now. There was a time when
modernism was at odds with the organic designs of nature. As the awareness about the importance of ecoconsciousness has taken to the minds of the public, it has also spilled over into the design world, resulting in the new realm of modernist, green designs. At Organo, all the homes share this new-age philosophy and offer a harmonious connection between indoor and outdoor living. From eco-friendly building materials to designs that minimize usage of water and electricity, these homes elegantly combine the stylish and sustainable. Echoing contemporariness and practicality, all the villas at Organo are designed to optimize the spaces and encourage better interaction with the nature. Linearly
oriented, these villas allow all living areas to have a full farm view. Open platform at the entrance foyer is designed to allow one to clear the errands there itself, while the servant’s block is tucked behind the garage cutting down all the service spaces inside the home. Recycled bamboo screens are put in place which are intended to act as shading devices as well as vertical garden features. Provisions have been made to use all terraces and outdoor decks as living areas rather than just mere outdoor spaces. Terraces double up as personal party spaces with the design texture of the solar panels throwing in some glitter to light up the evening. All living areas open into the backyard that provides a panoramic view of the community farm, subtly divided by farm buffer,
where at every stride one will tumble across opportunities for indulgence. The outdoor patios come with retractable roofs allowing one to enjoy the beauty of all seasons. This is where is where the outdoor living spirit is nurtured as the spaces given are flexible and multifunctional. Bedrooms are adorned with their own sitouts to encourage outdoor living. The design of the villa is compact with services spaces and special spaces like the AV rooms of the house that are sparsely used are pooled into community amenities, this not only reduces the number of unused spaces of the community but also conserves a lot of energy.

At Organo's Naandi, life is all about expanding every moment.
Living at Organo, you will agree, there’s more to life than just coming home in between breaks from work.

In fact, it is an attempt to bring in the contemporary international concept, where highly successful and environmentally conscious
people are becoming organic farmers and experiencing the sheer bliss of life on a slow track. Picture this! Owning an organic farm that gives you 50 kgs of fruits and vegetables every month. Also, organic milk, organic honey and many more. Fishing in natural, aqua pond. Everything 100% natural and healthy, and you are a part of this without having to sacrifice on your profession or urban lifestyle comforts.
It’s time to listen… Do we have time to listen to bird songs? The song of a bird has forever been connected with unending rapture and unfettered freedom. The song of a bird is figurative of the power of nature to soothe and enrich lives, otherwise trapped in the endless whirlwind of activity, in a maze of noise and exploding urban development. At Organo… the song of birds, call out to you. It’s time to listen…
sliding glass doors open up to enable the home’s interiors embrace the natural world surrounding it.

Living at Organo's Naandi has its own share of perks.

Fully Airconditioned farm villas
Energy Let the clean air blow the cobwebs from the body. Air is medicine. - Lillian Russell
The Technology Introducing homes that “breathe”
Organo - Powered by self-reliant solar energy Truly sustainable and self-reliant alternate energy source designed to meet the community's requirements
Human activity is overloading earth’s atmosphere with carbon-dioxide and other global warming emissions, which trap heat, steadily drive up the planet’s temperature and create significant and harmful impacts on our health, overall climate and environment, and electricity production accounts for majority of these harmful emissions. Organo employs a self-reliant 100% net-zero community renewable energy source designed to meet the community’s loads. Completely powered by solar
panels of top quality and German made inverters all the energy required by the community is, in fact, produced on site, thereby reducing transmission loss and load on the grid. Alternative energy sources like solar energy have a host of social, environmental and economic benefits. They are truly sustainable and have no negative environmental impact as they have little or no net carbon or other green-house gas emissions. They don’t deplete natural resources and in fact, protect air land and
water. Organo’s Naandi greatly benefits from this greeninitiative. All the infrastructure at Organo’s Naandi - the living spaces, the pumps for the borewells, the cattle sheds, the health facilities etc. - are powered by solar panels installed for benchmark capacity over their respective roofs with a minimum power back-up wherever required. The entire system is also connected in a micro-grid for maximizing its efficiency. This will enable each facility to not
only use power produced through its own roof installations, but also borrow from the micro-grid that connects all the solar installations whenever required. If the power produced by the entire energy infrastructure is higher than the power required by the layout, the energy management committee would trade the excess energy to the government electricity board on pro-rata basis. The returns from the same would go to Organo fund.
Earthen Tunnel Draft Being a farming project, lands are irrigated hence; will have reduced temperatures below 2mts. This thermal condition is exploited xploited using Tunnel T Draft mechanism wherein the fresh air will be drawn around Oxygen generating vegetation and driven T necessary into the building through Tunnel draft after necessary filtrations. This technique can reduce temperature by as much 0 as 5C.

A sustainable organic community for all ages
A community with abundant ground water source replenished perennially
The community adopts a sustainable method of water supply using Hydro Pneumatic Pumps to meet the desired pressure levels, which consumes less energy than the traditional system. We also have water tanks on top of all villas as an alternative to the Hydro pneumatic pumps. This apart, all the water fixtures in the villas are green rated efficient flow fixtures.
A sustainable water management system makes Organo water independent
Water is the most important basic need for any habitation to exist and is a precious resource. According to Commission on Sustainable Development, less than 1% of the Earth’s fresh water is readily accessible for human use, which equates to only one teaspoon of water out of a full bathtub. Hence, understanding the earth’s natural water cycle and the land’s watershed are the keys to sustainable water management. Organo’s Naandi employs effective watershed measures to enhance the catchment areas and conservative water usage at all levels with the help of latest technologies. The farm is designed to be water independent. All water systems are designed based on the rain water available in Hyderabad every year. Four Waters Concept: An interdisciplinary approach ‘Four Waters Concept’, developed by Mr. T.
Hanumantha Rao, a retired Engineer in Chief, from Andhra Pradesh Irrigation Dept., is adopted in the core design of the farm. The concept was extremely successful in countering drought and averting people migration in China. Scientific methods are used to calculate the sizes and placement of the storm water trenches that channelize the water falling on the site in a controlled way without any soil erosion. Irrigation is done with drip irrigation mechanism controlled with solenoids and computerized farm automation. This apart, water conservation techniques practiced at Organo reduces water requirement of the farm by about 50%. These techniques include… • Live mulch, garden waste and coconut waste covering layers of earth • Soil breeding-live organic mulch as a continuous farm cover • Active farm land manure from the animal husbandry unit

People are the life of a community. It’s their collective like-mindedness and willingness to share and perform various responsibilities for everyone’s good is what makes a community lively and thriving. Their interactions within and with others, helping each other and sharing the small joys of life makes the community all the more successful.
At Organo's Naandi, people sustainability is at two levels. Firstly, there are mandatory responsibilities that the residents have to fulfill for smooth and effective functioning of the community and secondly, the social responsibilities. All the residents are thrust upon with key responsibilities that they need to pursue and play their part in day-to-day functions to make the community a better place.
This apart, they also need to play their part in making the society a better place. They are encouraged to take part in various social welfare activities. Apart from sustainable management of resources, Organo’s intent of promoting a soul of collective living is achieved only when the members participate in the community. The principal
resource, we as a society today possess above all else, is people. Organo recognizes the value of this resource and inspires its members to actively share their expertise, knowledge and time for active social enhancement or cultural progress of the community.

Galloping Goodness
“There is something about the outside of a horse that is good for the inside of a man.” These famous words of Sir Winston Churchill truly describe the significance of these beautiful and majestic animals to mankind. Since time immemorial, horses have been an integral part of our lives. Right from the time of Roman emperors to the Wild West cowboys, horseriding was a culture we left behind in the sands of time. They are now used in the pursuit of sport, leisure and recreation. Organo brings back the culture of horse-riding, the joy of building a relationship with an intelligent animal, the gush of excitement trusting the animal to whisk you away into the wild. But more than the exhilarating
We all enjoyed playing in the nature in our childhoods. It didn’t matter if we had a pristine patch of forest to play in or just a couple of vacant city lots. Either way, there were endless things to find, explore, capture, imagine, and play with. But the most important thing was that these places were right there, within our walking or biking distance. No car, no parent, and no schedule were needed to get outside and play in nature
Gift your kids the luxury of playing in open spaces
thrill that every ride offers, the benefits of horse-riding go beyond simple enjoyment - physically, mentally and emotionally. Riding a horse stimulates internal organs just as walking on foot does. This aids in liver function and digestion, and makes riding a great therapy option for those who want to burn calories. Many people find companionship and solace while working with their horse. The camaraderie of people who enjoy similar activities is also appealing. It’s fun to get together with friends for a horse-riding lesson or a short ride down the alley. Life is too short…live it, learn it and enjoy the ride.
But today things have changed. Children have lost touch with their roots. The finer joys of gazing at the stars or playing in the mud or climbing the trees to chase the birds away, have lost their charm to demon-bashing, speedcrushing videogames and carnage-filled, loudmouthed TV shows. Most importantly, accessibility to natural play areas, outdoors to be more specific, have practically vanished.
The Joy Of Childhood
It requires planning, commuting and above all great effort to make a child experience these simple things. Suddenly the world has shrunk for children, leaving them with very few options for fun and play. Give your kids the joy of chasing butterflies, in
reality not virtually. Give them a chance to marvel at the lilies hanging in bunches from gnarled branches and maybe discover a fossil or an insect. Gift your kids the privilege of playing in open spaces bigger than a parking lot. At Organo's Naandi, nature play is an everyday joy of childhood. The community has been designed to foster wonderful new ways for kids to play outdoors, such as natural play areas and tot lot that strike a fine balance between adventure play, creative play and leisure play, all encompassed in simple structures. Children are encouraged to take active part in farming so that they start appreciating the smell of the soil, connect to the roots and explore the
diverse gifts of the nature. This apart, there is an exclusive space for art/craft workshops for children to pursue their interests, learn and develop new things. A child’s mind is restless, inquisitive and willing to explore. No matter how playful and mischievous they are, they are also very stubborn. Especially when it comes to food. At Organo's Naandi, the biggest challenge for you will be is to get your children to appreciate organic food. Because at Organo's Naandi that’s what they are going to eat. By doing a few simple things, you can get them to start liking organic food. Start by giving them their own little space to cultivate, which you have
aplenty at Organo's Naandi. Provide them with harmless gardening tools to go about and make them feel important for what they are doing. That will get them more interested in growing things and be responsible for it. Decorate your garden and plant varieties that attract butterflies and beneficial insects. Blooming flowers and Butterflies can prove to be mesmerizing for children. Have a weekend family gardening activity that will make your kids inquisitive. Plant a tree or many trees and get your kids to do it with you. They will find the process of seeing a tree grow really cool. This way, you can do a lot of things that will amaze your children and make them understand the organic way of life.

all families are presented with such ideal situations. Today’s professions and lives demand a lot from people. Situations force them to stay independently and sacrifice the values of a typical Indian family system. For Indians living abroad, it is always a difficult decision to leave their loved ones behind, especially their aged parents. In most cases, it is the parents who refrain from leaving their ‘family’ home or their motherland with which they have an emotional attachment. It is mostly a sense of fear they develop at the very thought of living in a foreign land away from their comfort zone and doing things independently, unlike in India where you find help for everything. For all the NRIs who wish to give their parents a good, healthy and secured life in
Hyderabad, Organo can be a great option.

Also, having been in very close quarters to the construction industry and watching the growth spurt of Hyderabad, protecting the bio-conservation zone has been of paramount importance to the Navira team.
