In Odisha’s Kandhamal district, tribal communities grow pure and natural spices like turmeric, black pepper, ginger, and tamarind. These spices are cultivated in forest regions using age-old organic methods, without any chemicals or pesticides. Known for their rich aroma, strong flavor, and medicinal properties, these spices are an important part of tribal cooking and local traditions. They also play a key role in supporting the tribal economy. With the help of organizations like Tribes India, these high-quality spices are now reaching more people, helping tribal farmers earn a better livelihood while promoting healthy, chemical-free ingredients for everyday cooking.
