Our Origins

Our roots run deep in Meghalaya, a land known for its pristine environment, rolling hills, and fertile soil. This untouched landscape provides the perfect conditions for some of the world’s most powerful superfoods.

We source our ingredients from regions like Jaintia Hills and Mawphlang, where farmers handpick and cultivate each crop with respect for the land. This region is home to Lakadong turmeric, known for its exceptionally high curcumin content, as well as Makhir ginger, prized for its intense flavor and health benefits.

Our direct farm-to-table approach ensures that you get nutrient-rich, unprocessed ingredients just as nature intended. Every purchase you make helps preserve this rich agricultural heritage while supporting sustainable farming practices.

Our Story

We’re Malvika and Ushma, two friends brought together by a shared love for health, nature, and sustainability. Our journey began in 2004 when we met through our husbands, Retash and Rikki. Two decades later, inspired by our experiences as working mothers and wellness advocates, we founded Humble Origins Superfoods, a brand dedicated to bringing ethically sourced superfoods to every home.

Juggling careers, parenting, and everyday life, we saw firsthand how pure, nutrient-dense foods can transform health and well-being. This sparked a mission: to deliver potent, single-origin superfoods that empower small yet meaningful lifestyle changes.

At Humble Origins Superfoods, we go beyond offering high-quality ingredients. We partner with farmers, who follow time-honored techniques like composting, rain-fed irrigation, and natural pest control—no shortcuts, no additives, just nature’s best, cultivated with care.

From the soothing warmth of Pure Calming Cardamom and the restorative power of Immunity Boosting Medley, every product embodies our commitment to purity, sustainability, and tradition. When you choose Humble Origins, you're not just nourishing yourself—you’re supporting ethical farming, fair wages, and a movement toward a healthier future
