Our farm
A small farm that never learned to hurry.
Uppalapati Farms sits on the western edge of Hyderabad, where the herd is cared for closely and the ghee is made the slow way it has always been made.

Our story
It started with churning milk.
What began as a family habit — churning ghee for our own kitchen, the way the household has for generations — slowly became a second job. Neighbours asked. Then the street. Then the town.
We were never trying to build a large dairy. We wanted to keep the herd small enough to know every animal by name, and the process slow enough that we could still taste the difference when something changed.
That is the whole idea behind this site: nothing here is scaled up, rushed, or blended to hit a number.
The method
Bilona, the way it is meant to be.
Milk. Collected from our own herd each morning. A cow's milk is at its richest a few hours after milking, so nothing sits overnight before it is set.
Curd. The milk is warmed and left to set naturally into curd. Patience here decides the flavour — rushed curd gives a thin, buttery ghee.
Churning. The curd is churned slowly until the butter separates and the ghee rises clear and golden.
Boiling. The butter collected from the churn is then heated and boiled until the milk solids have cooked away, leaving only clear golden ghee behind.
Jarred. The same day, into food-grade glass, sealed and labelled on the farm. No preservatives, because the process does not need them.
