Garden Learning and Community Planting in Bengaluru
Small beginnings, learning about composting and joining a tree-planting drive.
This was our first actual step towards sustainability. We visited this amazing composting and waste management park and were so humbled and inspired. It was a small beginning, but we hope to go a long way.
We had the opportunity to get a tour from Vasuki sir, a composting expert. Listening to him explain how waste does not just disappear was incredibly insightful. We are hoping to incorporate more of these practices into our work.
We were so humbled to take part in this tree planting drive. It was amazing to see the local community come together to help create a bio-diverse forest on what was almost barren land. We are looking forward to joining more events like this.

About Sustainable Gardening & Community
We visited SwachaGraha Kalika Kendra with Vasuki to learn about composting and waste. Keerthi described it as a beginning, hoping the learning would become something tangible.
At the BlueDot tree-planting drive, the local community joined work on a site intended to become a biodiverse forest. We took a small part in that event.
Upcycling pots and furniture is already part of our gardens. These learning and community moments do not mean we provide odour-free home composting systems or an RWA composting service.
