Early Days (circa July 2021)

It was love at first sight. We fell in love with this land: acres of lush greenery surrounded by water on 3 sides, hills in the horizon and mist in the air. Little did we know the greenery was mostly weeds, the surrounding water bodies were causing water logging in a large part of the land and to top it all we did not have a proper road access.

But there was something about this land that captivated our hearts and we were determined to work here and build Harmony Forest.

First Ganesha puja

We could barely find a dry spot to sit and pray. We wore boots and searched for a spot for our Ganesha.
