About Us

Rooted in Tradition.
Grown for Wellness.

House of Rakthashali is a food brand focused on preserving and bringing back India’s traditional grain varieties through natural cultivation and honest processing.

A Journey Guided by Soil, Seed & Time

Some stories are grown, not written. Ours began with a single grain and a quiet belief that nothing truly valuable should disappear.

2006
A Rare Grain Found
In a quiet corner of our family fields in Kerala, an unusual red-hued paddy plant was noticed. Curious and resilient, it stood apart from the rest — the beginning of something rare.
From Pot to Fields
The seeds were nurtured carefully — from a small pot at home to small plots of land. Each season revealed the strength and purity of this ancient grain.
2007–2010
2011–2014
Proven by Science
The grain was tested and verified by agricultural experts — rich in iron, nutrients, and traditional medicinal value, confirming its identity as Rakthashali.
Grown by Community
Seeds were shared with small farmers across Kerala, bringing Rakthashali back into cultivation and everyday kitchens.
2015–2017
2018–2019
The Flood Years
The Kerala floods destroyed fields and resources, forcing operations to stop — but not the belief in this grain and what it stood for.
A New Beginning
With a new generation stepping in, the journey begins again — with renewed purpose, clarity, and vision.
2024 – 2025
Today
