Detailed Write-up

Farm Fresh Fruits and Vegetables is an easy to miss place without any distinguishable characteristics from outside. You do not even get comfy chairs and tables to sit and enjoy the drink and at times, you might even have to wait for some time to get the drink you ordered. With their special juices, all these minor problems are invisible to their patrons.

Owned by Jayaprakash, who is also a social worker, this place is easily identified among the locals. When you travel from Kodungalur to Thrissur, this shop is located on the right side just before a curve on Poochinnipadam Junction. You will have to park somewhere on the roadside away from the shop, as this place is located right at the Junction.

Prepared after studying about the health benefits of gooseberry, Nellikka juice from this place is their most favorite drink. This mixture of over twenty local herbs is truly like having a shock treatment when you have it for the first time. The flavor of this drink will catch you unawares and so does the price, which is really reasonable for the effort that goes into making it. Jayaprakash will get all vocal if you ask about the medicinal values of this drink, which varies from reducing cholesterol to sugar.

Samam with Strawberry, Papaya Mix, Grape Mix, Pineapple Mix, etc are some of the other special juices that are available at this place. All these superb drinks are the result of experiments the owner started when he was in the school itself. Years of trial and error has paid off well with exceptionally tasty drinks which are mixed in perfect ratios to give altogether different tasting drinks. Different Juices are prepared and kept cold in the freezer, and the owner mixes them on order from the customers. Summer season is their most rush time when they get as many as hundred customers asking for these special drinks. All the juices are from fresh fruits, so some flavors are only available during certain seasons.
