A Journey Back to Nature
The pace with which the world around us moves often makes us wonder where we belong, as racing against time becomes a norm rather than an exception. With every aspect of our lives going by the schedules set by the modern world, the longing to establish an organic connection with Mother Nature grows all the stronger. While all of this is part of modern life, there’s something inside of us that yearns for a different pace—something slower, simpler, and more attuned to Nature.

At times, we all feel the need to step away from the constant hum of the city. We long for fresh air, wide-open skies, and spaces that let us unwind and truly rejuvenate. Somewhere, our eyes can rest on vast, open landscapes instead of the urban sprawl. And that’s when we realize how much we’ve missed the organic connection to nature—the peace of being surrounded by trees, fresh produce, and the gentle rhythms of rural life.
This is where the concept of Into the Roots came to life—a space designed to offer a gentle escape from the modern hustle. A place where time slows down and life can be experienced at a more natural pace. Our farm stay retreat is not just about getting away; it’s about rediscovering what we’ve lost touch with—traditional farming, slow-living communities, and the village life that so many of us grew up living with and hearing about but few of us get to experience today.
Into the Roots – A place to reconnect
We believe in creating spaces that connect people to nature and each other. Into the Roots is a farm stay experience nestled in the heart of Kerala’s tropical wilderness. A tranquil haven surrounded by thriving farmland, where the air is clean, the water pure, and the food fresh from the earth. Here, you can leave behind the noise of city life and reconnect with what truly matters—family, friends, adventure, the beauty of nature or just being with yourself.
Whether you’re seeking a weekend getaway or a longer retreat, Into the Roots offers a range of activities that invite you to slow down and truly experience the land. From exploring the farm and tasting wholesome local cuisine to immersing yourself in the rhythms of rural life, and discovering the natural beauty of western ghats, every moment here is about enjoying the simplicity of life and the joy of being grounded in nature.
Into the Roots came into existence to provide a sanctuary where you and your loved ones can step away from the distractions of everyday life and return to what’s truly pertinent. In this space, we don’t just want to offer you a stay; we want to offer you an experience, where you can savour the beauty of the land, learn about sustainable farming practices, and spend time with people who matter most. Whether you’re relaxing in a cosy eco-friendly cottage, strolling through the fields, or enjoying the company of loved ones, you’ll find that every moment here is a true reflection of the simple joys of life.
Connecting with Nature and Community
We invite you on a journey through the heart of the Western Ghats and the Malayatoor Forest, where we will connect you to the beauty of the land, the rich flora and fauna, and the vibrant local culture. From the sustainable farming practices that nourish our land to the delicious, authentic Kerala cuisine that nourishes our bodies, we’ll offer you an immersive experience into the values we hold dear and that we can co-create together.
You’ll also discover traditional crafts and heritage and hear from locals who share their deep connection with this extraordinary land. We want to celebrate the things that make Kerala and its rural way of life —so special—while gently reminding us all of what we sometimes miss in our fast-paced, modern lives.
