Born from a love for the Gir cow
GirYashoda Ecofarms began with a simple belief: that the Gir cow, India's most sacred and ancient breed, deserves to live with dignity. Our founders left city life to establish a farm where these magnificent animals could graze freely, eat naturally, and give milk on their own terms.
Today our herd of Gir cows lives on open pasture, fed on organic fodder, and cared for by a team that treats each animal as family. We follow zero-cruelty practices — no force-feeding, no hormones, no artificial stimulation.

India's most treasured cow
The Gir cow originates from the Gir forest region of Gujarat. Recognised by her distinctive humped back, long pendulous ears, and gentle temperament, she is one of the world's most prized dairy breeds.
Gir milk contains the A2 beta-casein protein — the same protein found in human breast milk — making it far easier to digest than milk from hybrid breeds. Her milk is also richer in omega-3 fatty acids, calcium, and vitamins A and D.
