FAQs
About Farmse
What is Farmse?
Farmse is a clean food brand focused on sourcing and delivering food the way it was meant to be consumed. We work closely with farmers, processors, and small producers who prioritise natural methods over speed, yield, or cosmetic perfection.
What does Farmse stand for?
Farmse stands for restraint, transparency, and respect for food. We believe good food does not need heavy processing, aggressive claims, or artificial consistency. It needs time, intention, and honesty.
Is Farmse an organic brand?
Many Farmse products are certified organic, while others follow traditional, chemical-free practices that go beyond certifications. Where applicable, we clearly mention organic status on the product page.
Sourcing & Quality
Where do Farmse products come from?
Our products are sourced directly from farms, orchards, forests, and traditional processing units across India. Each product is selected based on origin, method, and integrity rather than volume.
Do you work directly with farmers?
Yes. Wherever possible, we work directly with farmers, farmer groups, and small producers to ensure fair practices and traceable sourcing.
Are Farmse products tested for quality?
Yes. Products undergo quality checks to ensure purity, safety, and compliance with food standards. We avoid unnecessary processing even during testing.
Processing Philosophy
What does wood pressed mean?
Wood pressed refers to oils extracted using a traditional wooden kolhu at low temperatures. This method avoids heat, chemicals, and refining, allowing the oil to retain its natural structure and flavour.
Are Farmse oils refined?
No. All Farmse oils are unrefined. They are not bleached, deodorised, or chemically treated.
What makes your A2 Gir Cow Ghee different?
Our ghee is made from A2 milk of indigenous Gir cows using the traditional bilona method. The process is slow and manual, preserving aroma, texture, and digestibility.
Is Farmse honey raw?
Yes. Farmse Wild Forest Honey is raw and unheated. It is extracted carefully and left unprocessed to preserve enzymes, pollen, and natural variation.
Ingredients & Additives
Do Farmse products contain preservatives?
No. We do not add preservatives, artificial flavours, colours, or enhancers to any Farmse product.
Do you add sugar, syrup, or fillers to honey or jaggery?
No. Our honey contains only honey. Our jaggery products are made only from sugarcane juice with no added sugar or chemicals.
Why do some products look or taste different across batches?
Natural foods change with seasons, climate, and harvest conditions. Variation is a sign of authenticity, not inconsistency.
Usage & Storage
How should Farmse oils be stored?
Store oils in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Natural sediment is normal and does not affect quality.
Why does coconut oil solidify?
Coconut oil naturally solidifies at cooler temperatures. This is normal and reversible by gentle warming.
Why does honey crystallise?
Crystallisation is a natural process in raw honey and indicates purity. Place the jar in warm water to liquefy if needed.
How should jaggery products be stored?
Store jaggery cubes or powder in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. Mild hardening or clumping is natural.
Health & Nutrition
Are Farmse products suitable for daily use?
Yes. Farmse products are designed for regular consumption as part of a balanced diet.
Are your products suitable for children and elders?
Yes, unless otherwise specified. Always consult a healthcare professional for specific dietary needs.
Do Farmse products have medicinal benefits?
Farmse products are foods, not medicines. They are traditionally valued for nourishment and balance, not for treating diseases.
Ordering & Delivery
Where do you deliver?
We deliver across India. Delivery timelines may vary based on location and product seasonality.
Do you ship seasonal products like mangoes?
Yes. Seasonal products are shipped only during their natural harvest window and may be available for limited periods.
Can I return a product?
Due to the nature of food products, returns are accepted only in cases of damage or incorrect delivery. Please refer to our return policy for details.
Transparency & Trust
Why are Farmse products priced higher than mass-market brands?
Our pricing reflects small-batch sourcing, traditional processing, fair farmer compensation, and minimal intervention. We do not optimise for scale at the cost of quality.
Does Farmse believe in certifications or processes?
We believe processes matter more than labels. Certifications are important, but integrity in sourcing and processing comes first.
How can I trust Farmse claims?
We avoid exaggerated claims. What we say on the label is exactly what is inside. No more, no less.
Brand Philosophy
Who is Farmse for?
Farmse is for people who read labels, ask questions, and value long-term health over convenience. It is for kitchens that cook intentionally.
Is Farmse a luxury brand?
Farmse is not about luxury pricing. It is about disciplined quality. When food is done right, it naturally feels premium.
