When was the last time you visited a forest? In this episode we explore our relationships with forests (or the lack thereof)! From exploitation to reverence, we all tend to look at forests differently and that's often determines how we treat them too.
We also speak with Mr.Shubhendu Sharma- the Founder and Director of Afforest, an organization that's in the business of growing forests- aaah how cool is that!
They have also created free, easy to follow video tutorials to help people understand their forest creation techniques better.
Here's a link to the video tutorials: this video
They have a Tiny Forest Creation service for individuals who own a small piece of land and wish to convert it into a tiny forest. It’s a small-scale, end-to-end service in the field of forest creation.
