Pepper Cultivation
We welcome you with another exciting topic and the superb location of Cherry Field Farm which is mainly known for its pepper cultivation in Denkanikottai area.
Denkanikottai weather is perfect for Pepper Cultivation and Feb end till March are the harvesting months. You will get to witness harvest and post-harvest work that goes behind this spice which abundantly grows in Joseph and Sara's Farm.
Jose Uncle himself will be our speaker and also tells what goes behind pepper cultivation. Apart from this we will be having our usual Santhe from 11 am to 12 pm followed by the knowledge sharing session and practical session on pepper cultivation.
Healthy Buffet lunch will be provided around 1 pm and you will get enough time to network and bond between the session with fellow attendees. Also get to witness a farm tour by host himself.

For many such stories and practical demonstration please register for March meetup.

About Us
About Us
DFO Meetups was founded with the vision of building a community of urban farmers—or rather, first-generation, curious farmers—eager to experiment with AgTech, Zero Budget Natural Farming, Permaculture, Sheep and Goat Farming, Agro-Tourism, Drones, and more. You name it, and someone in this community is doing it!
The challenge was to create a single platform where people could share their experiences, build deep connections, and inspire one another on this demanding journey. Now, in its third year, DFO Meetups has only grown stronger. It has sparked new initiatives, fostered entrepreneurial ideas, and empowered urban farmers to execute them sustainably.
These meetups are held once every month, each time featuring a new topic and a different farm as the venue, ensuring fresh learning experiences and deeper engagement with diverse agricultural practices.
WHAT PEOPLE SAY
Raman Natarajan
​ I have been a part of DFO group since its inception and exactly 4 years before I have attended a session on 'Snakes Mgt' at Grace farm and after that due to Covid and other personal reasons I was not able to attend and today I am happy to be back. I want to thank entire organization as youngsters have taken a lead now earlier myself and other old members used to organize. I find that all the volunteers are doing a very good job in organizing these meetups, working wholeheartedly. Food was simply superb.
Swapnsree Sengupta
We love the vibe of this community and attended most of the meetups happened in the past. The way they organise knowledge sharing sessions, santhe and games everything shows the effort that these people are putting. We hope these meet ups will run forever.
Joy (Paradise Acres Farm)
DFO meetups along with Santhe have come a long way over the last few yearovers. We have seen a lot of improvement in terms of organizing efficiency, planning and participation. Added a good range of farm products in the Santhe and the inclusion of live food counters enriched the overall experience. As a seller I can see a gradual increase in demand and sales. This is a unique mechanism/effort of creating a vibrant market with a fair price of products created with a lot of passion.
