Experience the Tadmal Bhat Lavni – A Monsoon Celebration Like No Other

Experience the magic of the monsoon with the traditional Bhāt Lāvṇī (bhat lavni) at Tadmal! Just a few hours from Mumbai, this rice planting event with tribal women brings together nature, culture, and pure joy — all wrapped in a muddy, musical celebration of life.




🌧 What is Bhat Lavni?

Bhāt Lāvṇī is the traditional practice of rice planting during the monsoon season – an age-old ritual performed with songs, laughter, and a strong connection to the earth. In Tadmal, it becomes something more: community, culture, and celebration.

Walk barefoot in muddy fields, feel the raindrops, laugh with tribal women, and take part in a tradition that is both peaceful and playful.


🍠 Monsoon Treats – Simple, Soulful, Delicious

While you plant, we pamper you. Enjoy piping hot roasted corn (मक्याची कणसं) and steamed sweet potatoes (रताळी) — seasonal treats served fresh from the fire, just the way nature intended.


🫶 Forest-Style Village Meal After Bhat Lavni

After the hard work and muddy fun, sit down for a wholesome forest-style meal, served traditionally on leaf plates. Choose between veg or tribal non-veg meals — all made with local ingredients and village flavors.
