TIKSmart Farms — Fresh Gongura & Indian Vegetables, Grown by Doctors
A 7-acre family farm where physicians and pharmacy professionals grow Gongura (Kenaf/Roselle), Moringa, okra, gourds, and other Indian and Asian vegetables the old-fashioned way — naturally, and picked fresh.
Doctor-Grown, Farm-Fresh
TIKSMART Farms (Tumpati, Indukuri & Koduri Smart Farms) was founded by two doctors and a pharmacy professional who believe food is medicine. What started as a weekend hobby project in 2016 has grown into a beloved local source of fresh, naturally grown Gongura and Indian vegetables in South Jersey.
We believe in locally grown produce, grown naturally, for the best flavor and nutrition — harvested the same day you pick it up.

Why Gongura?
Gongura (also called Kenaf or Roselle) is a South Indian favorite — rich in fiber, protein, vitamin A, vitamin C, calcium, potassium, and iron. Store-bought Gongura can lose up to 90% of its nutritional value by the time it reaches a shelf. Ours is picked fresh, right before it gets to you.
Come Visit the Farm
Open Saturdays 12–6 PM and Sundays 4–6 PM at 225 Fort Dix Road, Pemberton, NJ 08068. Other days by appointment only — please call ahead.
