Sardarni Harvinder’s Guava Garden

Guava plants growing healthy in our farms

During our visit to our farms couple of years back in Badbar, Punjab, Sardarni Harvinder Kaur's keen instincts for plants led to a desire for Guava plants. We ordered 20 saplings planted along the way to our tube well on the 'Maru' parcel of lands. On our recent visit, Harvinder eagerly inquired about the Guava plants, and to our delight, we discovered thriving and well-aligned Guava plants near the tube well—a virtual miracle from the initial conceptualization to their flourishing reality.

Guava plants, known for their versatility, offer various benefits beyond their delicious fruits. For diabetic patients, guavas are particularly advantageous due to their low glycemic index and high fiber content. The fruit helps regulate blood sugar levels, making it a suitable addition to a diabetic-friendly diet.

Not only are guavas rich in dietary fiber, aiding digestion and preventing blood sugar spikes, but they also contain essential vitamins and minerals. Vitamin C, present abundantly in guavas, contributes to overall immune system health and may assist in managing diabetes-related complications.

Beyond health benefits, guava plants contribute to sustainable farming practices. They are hardy, drought-resistant, and require minimal pesticides, making them environmentally friendly. The fruit's nutritional value, coupled with its resilience, makes guava a valuable addition to both dietary and agricultural landscapes, especially for those with diabetes seeking a nutritious and diabetes-friendly option.

In essence, Sardarni Harvinder Kaur’s vision and dedication have not only nurtured the land but have also sown the seeds of sustainable prosperity for our inherited assets, creating a lasting legacy that harmonizes with both nature and family development.

The Guava plants are young, thriving and healthy, but we have yet to get a first fruit from them.
