In this episode we explore the story behind one of Goa's oldest organic food companies. In conversation with David Gower, Founder of Ambrosia Organic Farm, a Parra based business that has been working to promote organic produce & everyday groceries since its inception in the late 90's. We discuss the importance & therapeutic values of naturally grown ingredients, the evolution of farming in India and the simple ways in which to enrich your overall health while diving into David's own experiences. We learn what brought him to Goa, how the business in itself has grown organically with time with the help & guidance of countless farmers across the country.

The sound of the sea is a constant rhythm here, but the real heartbeat of Goa comes from its people. This monthly podcast from the team behind Goa.me moves beyond the postcard imagery to find the stories woven into the fabric of everyday life. Each episode is a quiet exploration, a conversation held on a veranda or a walk through a market, listening to the fishermen, artists, shopkeepers, and families who call this place home. You’ll hear the subtle shifts in tradition, the personal histories behind a beloved recipe, and the quiet challenges that exist alongside the celebrated beauty. Hosted by the creators of Goa's largest online community, the Goa podcast draws from a deep well of connection and curiosity. It’s less about documenting a destination and more about understanding a living culture through the voices that sustain it. The result is an intimate, unfolding portrait-a collection of authentic encounters that together reveal the complex and captivating soul of a region often simplified. Tune in for these regular, thoughtful dispatches from the ground, where every conversation adds another layer to the story.
