A Place to Gather
Jaran's began when Khane opened her family property as a shala for hire, offering food and homemade snacks alongside the gatherings held there.
It was a welcoming place, created with care, though the business took time to find its footing.
A Different Path
When the property was later placed on the market, Khane did not want her family land to lose its local roots or simply be sold to an overseas company. She hoped the place could grow while staying connected to its history, its community and the island.
Growing with Awakenest
That path emerged through a partnership with Stayfly Studio Co., Ltd., which invested in the space as the prototype home of Awakenest Festival. The partnership gave the property a new direction and marked the beginning of the permaculture project on the land.
As the gardens and natural food systems began to take shape, Khane returned to one of her own passions: making fermented drinks, natural food, and homemade snacks. Gardening and growing vegetables became part of the work too, bringing the kitchen and the land closer together.
Jaran's Today
Jaran's is the next chapter of that story: a family of small businesses grown from Khane's work on her family's land. Jaran's Eatery at the counter, Jaran's Kombucha, the drink it all began with, and Jaran's Second-Hand Shop.
Each one keeps its local roots, and the range will keep growing through thoughtfully made drinks, food, snacks, produce and pre-loved things, inspired by the garden, the seasons and the people around it.
