Residents and staff of the Mental Health Centre at Peroorkada in Thiruvananthapuram were more than satisfied with how their efforts had materialised. After months of planning and labour, they successfully converted a two-acre barren plot to an organic farming field. When this group of dedicated individuals decided to start organic farming here, they had no prior knowledge of farming and had to work around many limitations. However, their incessant hard work and commitment proved to be fruitful. They reaped a bountiful harvest and celebrated the occasion on Tuesday with the Mayor, Adv V K Prashant, inaugurating the event.
