Kochi Startup Lets Customers Rent Mango Trees and Receive Full Harvests at Home

A Kochi-based startup, Rent A Tree, founded by Umesh Damodaran, offers customers the option to lease mango trees for a season, receiving the full harvest—up to 90 kilograms—delivered to their homes. Operating across orchards in Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, and Kerala, the platform connects urban consumers directly with farmers who manage cultivation and harvesting. The service includes multiple plans and regular updates on tree conditions, aiming to provide fresh, naturally ripened mangoes while supporting farmers and reducing intermediaries.
