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. ## About PlantPets by Keerthi Gilla We are PlantPets, led by Keerthi. We are learning and taking small steps alongside the garden work we do.
