Here’s the real story of *Sarla Mann and Jitender Mann* — the husband-wife team behind *Husband Wife Farm* 🌱
From IT stress to soil
*Jitender Mann* worked for over a decade at a major IT firm, including TCS, pulling around ₹1 lakh/month. By his early 40s, the city grind caught up: blood pressure hit 160, plus thyroid issues and joint pain from long hours at a desk.
“My blood pressure was 160. It was a wake-up call for me”
In 2017, he quit his job. He and his wife *Sarla* left Delhi and moved back to their ancestral village, Mehmudpur in Sonipat, Haryana.
The moringa experiment
It started small — Jitender had grown moringa on his Delhi terrace as a health experiment. When they moved to the village, they decided to farm it seriously. The land had been depleted by chemical farming, so they spent time restoring soil fertility with cow dung, mulch, and _jeevamrit_, refusing pesticides or chemical fertilizers.
They process carefully: handpick stems, wash twice, dry in a greenhouse 8-10°C hotter than outside, then grind into powder. No-till farming keeps the soil ecosystem intact.
Husband Wife Farm today
Started in 2018, it’s Haryana’s first farmer-led moringa brand. They sell:
- *Moringa powder*: ₹650 for 200g
- *Other products*: neem & turmeric powder, triphala, curcumin capsules
Customers are in Delhi, Gurugram, Bengaluru, Mumbai, Ahmedabad — plus the USA and UAE. Demand is 2X their production. They employ 20 rural women for plucking, cleaning, and packaging.
Life after the switch
Jitender’s health turned around. He no longer needs BP meds — it’s now 120-130 — and he can do 5 chin-ups.

Sarla says it’s not a get-rich-quick story. Weather affects output, and ∼50% of turnover goes to labor many factors in farming
They represented Indian farmers at the CII National Food Processing Conclave 2026 in New Delhi.
