Featured in Malayala Manorama Karshakasree: Geetha’s Inspiring Journey
Geetha’s journey was recently featured in Karshakasree, the agricultural supplement of Malayala Manorama, one of Kerala’s most respected publications. The feature highlights her strength, determination, and the inspiring path she built despite losing her eyesight at a young age.
Geetha lost her vision completely by the age of fifteen. What could have ended her dreams became the beginning of a new purpose. Instead of allowing circumstances to define her life, she chose to create something meaningful, something rooted in agriculture, health, and hope. Read the full story behind Geethas →
From Personal Struggle to Purpose
Growing up close to farming, turmeric was always familiar to her. Over time, she began exploring how this traditional turmeric superfood could be transformed into a nourishing product for everyday use.
With the support of her husband, she started small experimenting from home, refining recipes, and carefully developing what would later become Curcumeal, a turmeric based wellness product. What began in a modest kitchen slowly grew into a trusted, agriculture based brand.
Her journey as a visually impaired entrepreneur is not just about business success. It is about belief - believing that limitations do not stop growth, and that determination can open new paths.
Building an Agriculture Based Brand
As demand increased, Geetha focused on turmeric farming and sourcing high quality ingredients. She worked closely with farmers, encouraging sustainable agricultural practices and supporting local cultivation. This same farm-level commitment is what goes into every product today — from Curcumeal and First Drink to her pure high curcumin turmeric powder.
Today, her work represents more than a product. It reflects a woman entrepreneur building a purpose driven brand rooted in health, community, and responsible farming. Her story connects agriculture, resilience, and entrepreneurship in a powerful way.
