The Jaipur Organic Farmers Cooperative Market (JOF.COM) was founded in 2020 with the mission of connecting health-conscious consumers to natural and organic farming practices. As a grassroots initiative, JOF.COM promotes a lifestyle focused on wellness and environmental stewardship. What began as a small movement to meet the rising demand for organic produce has now blossomed into a thriving marketplace. The market proudly showcases premium organic and naturally grown products from farmers across Jaipur and beyond, allowing customers to access naturally grown food.
JOF.COM serves as more than just a market; it is a community hub where sustainable practices are celebrated. By providing a direct platform for farmers and consumers to connect, JOF.COM ensures that small-scale farmers receive fair compensation for their efforts while customers enjoy fresh produce that supports both their health and the environment. Today, JOF.COM is recognized nationwide for its dedication to sustainable agriculture, support for local farmers, and promotion of eco-friendly practices.
The origins of JOF.COM trace back to a growing awareness of the harmful effects of pesticides and chemicals on food and health. Witnessing the devastating impact of terminal illnesses like cancer, some forward-thinking farmers began organic farming to cultivate food free of harmful chemicals. Initially, these farmers focused on growing organic food for their own families but later decided to extend this benefit to others in their community. In 2020, these farmers formally established the Jaipur Organic Farmers Market to offer safe and healthy organic food, initially featuring fresh vegetables and milk.
The establishment ofJOF.COM responded to the needs of conscious consumers who sought trustworthy sources of organic food. What began as a small group of farmers in Jaipur has grown into a pan-India marketplace, supported by a community of eco-friendly farmers and health-focused consumers who collaborate to promote organic farming.
Starting in 2020, JOF.COM began with just a few farmers around Jaipur, selling vegetables and milk at a small Sunday market.
By 2021, the market expanded its offerings to include grocery items produced up to 400 km away, available throughout the week at its retail outlet, "Total Organic Solutions."
In 2022, the market further expanded by introducing fruits from regions like Himachal Pradesh, Jammu & Kashmir, Assam, Maharashtra, and Gujarat, establishing JOF.COM as a pan-India hub for organic produce.
Today, JOF.COM provides a comprehensive range of kitchen essentials available throughout the week, with a dedicated outlet at Pratap Stadium, Vaishali Nagar, Jaipur.
At present, JOF.COM operates an outlet in Vaishali Nagar, Jaipur, offering a wide selection of organic kitchen essentials. Every Sunday, the market brings together farmers who display and sell their products directly to customers. These farmers independently set their prices, fostering a transparent and trust-driven shopping experience. The market’s backbone lies in its community of health-conscious individuals dedicated to promoting organic farming and protecting the environment.
