Gaia is happy to share with You the news that we worked with Mr. Kanakaraj and his Son Master. Sailesh to deliver 750 saplings (75 types of native tree specie) towards a Miyawaki Forest they are setting up at their farm house backyard (130 * 17 feet).
They are tackling a big problem by opting for Miyawaki. A neighbour in their village set up a coir briquette factory next to their farm at "head winds entry point". This meant 24*7 deposits of loose coir pith strands allover their property. The factory owner put up shade netted fence in between but the region being a wind corridor one, the poles were snapped and nets sheared in no time.
As a permanent solution, Mr. Kanakaraj chose to setup a Miyawaki forest as the 'perfect screen' for his property.
We at Gaia were happy to have walked him through the process of plant selection to delivery of the same at his farm gate!
Watch out this space for regular updates.
We at Gaia would love to set up more such green spaces for You too!
Our list of Native trees have grown to 120 now :-)
