The HSR Citizens Forum, a group of HSR residents, has turned a dilapidated median park into a community garden a while ago. Today, it’s not only a green lung space but also the educational ground for students. If you want to take part, you can drop anchor on any Sunday at the median park on 18th Cross in Sector 3, diagonally opposite McDonald’s. And if you want to understand organic gardening thoroughly, then every last Sunday of the month, there is a free workshop at Swachagraha Kalika Kendra in Sector 4 behind HP petrol bunk opposite BDA Complex, from 8am to 11am.
A few months ago, students from HSR’s Freedom International School were given a walk-through and a practical demonstration of how gardening is done. They even got their hands dirty to get a thrill of agriculture.
Says volunteer and resident Ratnakar Bhadravathi: “The school children were exhubarant and so am I to see the comprehensive activities of our team members. Kudos to each one of you to have made it a worthwhile place for children to visit and get sensitised about eco-friendly initiatives.”
