Please read this carefully in order to make the best use of your time at Rusty by Tenpy.
• Chiguru Farm is a 15-acres organic farm offering experiential farm outing/stay, with farm-fresh food. All our food is Vegetarian only and most of the ingredients (like ragi, different dals, greens etc) are grown/prepared in the farm and we serve local specialities. If you want any specific things to avoid in the food you can inform us at least a few hours in advance.
• Chiguru Farm is a No-alcohol place. As this is a functional farm next to the forest area, please avoid loud music.
• Please keep the doors always CLOSED in order to avoid frogs and insects entering your cabin.
• If you face any inconvenience during your stay at Chiguru Farm, please inform the supervisor upfront and/or call your Linger contact person immediately. We will try our best to resolve your issues quickly. (If your phone doesn’t have signal to call, you can request one of our staff to call and you can talk).
• Chiguru Farm is a place to rejuvenate and recreate yourself in the nature. It is NOT as “Adda” for illegal activities/gambling, etc

• Feel free to go around the farm on your own at any point of time during the day. It is a safe place with electric fence all around. You are free to pluck and taste fruits/vegetables etc directly from the trees, but do it judiciously and don’t waste them. If you want to take back anything with you, please ask.
• If you want to go out of the farm for short hikes/cycling etc we can suggest options. If you want any guide with you, you can request in advance and we will try to arrange (at extra cost)

• Please put the books/games back properly in the place from where you picked them up
• We sell our seasonal farm produce (fruits/vegetables/dals/pickle/etc) and potteryware at the farm store in the main building. Place the order in advance so that we can keep it ready.
