With the monsoon pouring in, everything seems to look more refreshing and colorful. Everyone wants that perfect monsoon makeover, be it for your home, clothing, or health. 

But, with COVID-19 still taking a toll on trades and lives, we cannot but overlook its severe effect in all walks of our life. Keeping our patrons safe being one of the topmost priorities of Hempistani, we urge everyone to stay home, however luring the monsoon sales may look. Though we love the rains, it’s often the time people fall ill, overcoming the sweltering heat. So, eating right and good during monsoon is super essential, more when you have COVID-19 doing its rounds.
