From the first microgreens experiments in 2019 to 50+ schools across India, Fiji, and Ghana, OMG Greens — also known as OMG Microgreens — is building what we believe is the world's first integrated living nature lab platform for schools.
Across the world, children are growing up in a time of climate uncertainty, nutrition challenges, lifestyle disease, and increasing disconnection from nature. They can study the food chain, climate change, and healthy eating in classrooms, but many never get the chance to grow food, observe life cycles, or taste fresh greens.
OMG exists to close this gap. We bring nature back into the learning experience by turning school spaces into living classrooms where children grow, observe, question, harvest, present, and act.
Sustainability is not only a subject. It is a habit. Nutrition is not only information. It is experience.
OMG began with microgreens, but the larger vision is to build a global platform for climate education, nutrition literacy, green skills, student leadership, and sustainable food systems.
What began as an experiment in growing microgreens became a journey through food, community and education. Over seven years, OMG has evolved from cultivating fresh food at Kanha Shanti Vanam to building Nature Labs that help children experience farming, nutrition and sustainability for themselves.
Brothers Sourabh S. Sindhe and Suchith S. Sindhe began exploring microgreens and their potential to make nutritious food more accessible. Their earliest experiments were driven by curiosity - learning how fresh food could be grown sustainably, quickly and in very small spaces.
When the COVID-19 lockdown kept the brothers at Kanha Shanti Vanam, exploration became purposeful action. With the guidance and encouragement of Daaji, Kamlesh D. Patel, they began growing microgreens on a terrace and supplying fresh harvests to the Kanha community.
A small growing experiment had found its first purpose - serving people through fresh, living food.
Throughout 2020 and 2021, OMG continued growing and supplying microgreens within the Kanha community. By July and August 2021, the work began reaching Hyderabad through packed microgreens, direct supplies and apartment communities.
Fresh juices followed, helping present microgreens in a form that was accessible, enjoyable and easier to make part of everyday life.
Organic Microgreens Private Limited was incorporated in March 2022. The same year, salads became part of OMG’s food offering and the first structured school pilot began at Kanha.
The experience revealed something fundamental: children relate to healthy food differently when they grow, prepare and taste it themselves. Farming could become more than cultivation. It could become a way of learning about health, science, responsibility and life.
This insight became the foundation of the OMG Nature Lab.
The learning experience began moving beyond Kanha. Through an initiative involving 30 Delhi government schools, teachers and students were introduced to microgreens, nutrition and hands-on growing.
OMG began turning its early experience into a model that schools could understand, adopt and sustain - taking the idea from a single pilot to many classrooms.
The early school programme evolved into the OMG Nature Lab - a structured learning system combining growing infrastructure, curriculum-linked activities, teacher support and student leadership.
OMG defined its role as the Green Bridge, connecting children back to nature and farming through direct experience. The model also began moving beyond India, with an international collaboration for schools in Ghana formalised at UNCCD COP16 in Riyadh.
OMG entered a new stage of institutional and international growth. Delhi Public School Nacharam established its OMG Nature Lab, while the Government of Sikkim partnered with OMG to introduce Nature Labs in PM SHRI schools.
The journey also reached communities and global platforms through Fiji, Ghana, the Commonwealth, the FAO World Food Forum and COP30. In September 2025, Organic Micro Greens Pty Ltd was registered in New South Wales, establishing OMG’s formal presence in Australia.
What began at Kanha was becoming a model with relevance across schools, communities and countries.
With more PM SHRI schools and partner institutions joining the journey, OMG now covers a school ecosystem of close to two lakh students.
The scale has grown, but the purpose remains unchanged: to help every child understand where food comes from, experience the responsibility of growing it and recognise the connection between personal health and the health of the planet.
From a few trays on a terrace to a growing network of living Nature Labs, OMG continues working towards one clear vision - a future in which every school gives children a space to learn how life grows.
OMG’s story is not defined only by how far it has travelled. It is defined by what happens when a child plants a seed, watches it grow and begins to see food, nature and the future differently.
OMG is led by brothers who bring together entrepreneurship, storytelling, operations, sustainability, education, youth leadership, and a deep personal connection to nature.
Vision, partnerships, institution building, global direction. Sourabh leads strategy and represents OMG on global platforms: including FAO World Food Forum, Commonwealth circles, and EU youth dialogues.
Operations, storytelling, field execution, youth engagement, emotional language of the brand. Suchith builds the day-to-day relationships with schools, students, and the OMG team.

We believe education should grow more than memory. It should grow awareness, curiosity, health, compassion, discipline, confidence, and responsibility.
A child who grows food understands patience. A child who observes life understands care. A child who teaches a parent what they learned becomes a leader at home.
One classroom. One tray. One child. One school at a time.
Whether you are a school leader, parent, teacher, partner, policymaker, media platform, or institution, OMG invites you to be part of a movement that makes education more alive.
