Where does our Jackfruit come from?

Our Jackfruits are hand-picked from the trees in Kerala (popularly known as God’s own country), which is the southern state of India. They are collected from the farmers and households with Jackfruit trees in their back gardens. This brings an additional income to their families.

A good yield is around 150- 250 large fruits per tree annually, and a fully mature tree may produce 500 medium or small size fruits.
