Hi All,

As we all know Gram Bharathi is more concentrating on Tree plantation for this year.

As part that we have distributed fruit bearing plants in  our villages as well as surrounding villages. We can already see many plants are in fruite bearing stage that we have distributed in last 2 years.

Also we have taken up the green corridor project to plant saplings along road sides connecting the villages.

So far, We have covered the following 12km stretch:

Jaladi to Jaggapuram (Fencing covered)
Jaggapuram to Edlapadu (Fencing not covered)

Jaladi to Ganesunivaripalem (Fencing covered)
Ganesuni vari plame to Sandipudi (Fencing not covered)

Though we can overcome the watering problem, it is becoming increasingly difficult to protect from the cattle. Due to limited funds (most of them are being spent for fencing with prick, we have covered around 550 plants with fencing.

On this Saturday (19th oct), it is planned to cover the following 15km stretch with the help of  the respective villages to plant the saplings along the road sides:

PATHIPADU <----> GANIKAPUDI  <------> KPAARRU  <----> THURLAPADU

Please plan to attend or convey the information to the people we are interested in going green for our future.

Also attached the complete contribution list and expenses report for the last 4 years that Grama Bharathi has received. Please inform, if we miss any body in the list.

Mega Tree Plantation even on 9th August, 2014

We have 2 days left before we go to the Village to fulfill the long waiting moment of this year.
Please be in jaladi at 11 AM on 9th August, 2014.
Please follow the tasks as assigned to us on last sunday gramabharathi meet.
If we get enough funding we are planning to buy a water carrying tanker that can be attached to Tractor (that it costs arounf 1 Lakh rupees) . This tanker can be utilized for other needs of villagers as well.

This will answer most of our villagers comment that the planted saplings are not being taken care properly despite of the fact that it is our villagers responsibility who stays there.


Apart from shading tress the following Fruit Bearing saplings (bigger ones that heights around 3 to 6 feet) from famous Kadiyam nurseries:
Please call upon our kith and kins in our village to get these diversified plants and enjoy the fruits in coming years:

(Interesting fact is that many fruit bearing saplings that we have provided last year brought from Kadiyam are already showering with sweet yields in many houses, I will get snaps when I visit the village this time)

We would like to start with thanking our almighty Jaladians and others for the past three glorious years doing service towards welfare of Village, people and environment.
