The environment continues to be a focus in Kolhewadi. Over the past three months, members of Kolhewadi Village have implemented the Demonstration Kitchen Garden Project. The kitchen gardens are made with locally available resources to provide families with the opportunity to grow enough vegetables for nutritious meals in a drought-prone location. In order to jump-start the project, seeds and saplings were distributed to the families.
The Men’s Group continues to meet informally, but the Women’s Group has become more structured and formalized. The Women’s Group has been receiving health and environmental knowledge, using this education to plant 2,000 fruit trees and 3,000 other plants. As of today, they are in the process of starting plant nurseries. The Men’s and Women’s Groups will continue to develop over the following months with the help of the Village Health Worker, Rekha, and CRHP social workers.
