## About Urban Gardening & Landscaping

### Mitti Mein Haath Daalo (Get Your Hands in the Soil)

I love helping people break free from just eating organic by actually growing their food. It's all about getting your hands in the mitti, not sticking to kitabi gyan. You don’t need a farm - just a sunny spot in your city home.

### Small Spaces, Big Possibilities

No backyard? Koi baat nahi (No problem). I turn balconies, rooftops, patios, even sunny windowsills into thriving kitchen gardens. You’d be surprised how much you can grow in a city balcony vegetable garden.

### How I Work

- Start with a chat about your space and what you want to grow.
- Design and set up everything, from building beds to mixing mitti with compost.
- Only use chemical-free, organic methods - you get healthy soil, better veggies.
- Residential homes, offices, schools, hotels - I’ve done them all, from tiny flats to rooftop edible landscapes.

### What Grows Here

Picture picking fresh bhindi, palak, tomatoes, lauki, pudina, carrots - all straight from your own space. Seasonal veggies, herbs, and even haldi or arbi.

### Ongoing Support

- I stick around with maintenance and guidance, so your garden doesn’t just survive, it thrives.
- Help with pest issues, compost tips, and handling Delhi ki garmi (Delhi’s heat).

### Real Impact

More than food - it’s health, stress relief, a greener city, and that unbeatable feeling of harvesting what you’ve grown.

## Meet your expert

[Edible Routes](https://mytribe.in/edibleroutes)

### My story

We started Edible Routes because city life made us forget what food fresh from the soil tastes like. Our first bhindi harvest on the terrace—magic! Turns out, you don’t need a big farm, just a few pots and some guts. Friends joined in, then their friends. Now we’re a crew of green thumbs hosting kids pizza workshops, running farmlets, and sending out organic baskets. Walking with nature, we’ve built a real community.

### My work

- **Bringing Nature Home**: We set up urban kitchen gardens for homes—balconies, rooftops, even windowsills. No backyard needed.
- **Workshops & Farm Fun**: Kids pizza workshop, yoga, composting, microgreens—hands-on, not boring. Learn, play, eat.
- **Farm-Fresh Food**: Weekly organic veggie basket, seasonal fruits, handcrafted vegan pesto, wild amla pickle. No chemicals, just real.
- **Farmlets & Organic Farm Management**: Join a farmlet in Gurgaon or Noida, grow your own food with us, or let us manage your organic farm.
