ROSE offer a wide variety of activities for anyone interested in learning about organic farming methods. During harvest, visitors are shown how to cut the various crops using only a knife. These crops include rice, wheat, millet, Soya, beans, and chickpeas to name a few. Wheat and rice grains are pounded with a mortar and pestle to make flour for the chapattis eaten at most meals. The agricultural work changes from season to season, but there is always work to be done. In the organic garden onions, chilies, garlic, mustard, greens, beans, radish, peas, spinach, cabbage, cauliflower, potatoes, peppers, aborigines, tomatoes, pumpkin, cucumbers, Taro, and okra are all vegetables planted. These vegetables are staples in the Indian diet and are spiced with ginger, turmeric, cardamom, and coriander to produce the unique, wonderful flavors of the cuisine. Having an understanding of what goes into the meals gives the visitor a greater appreciation for the food.
