Shri Kira Krishi Vikas Kendra

Being situated at 487 Gali Rajan Kalan in Kashmere Gate puts us in a very specific part of the city. At Shri Kira Krishi Vikas Kendra, we spend our days surrounded by things related to agriculture and farming needs. It’s a different vibe than the usual auto shops nearby. We get people coming in from further out, looking for things to help with their crops or equipment. The shop is tucked away a bit, so you have to know where you're going to find us. It’s often quiet in the early hours, which gives us time to count the bags and check the tools we have in stock. The walls are a bit stained from years of work, but they hold up fine. We don't really do much in terms of advertising; people mostly hear about us from their neighbors or friends. It’s a lot of heavy lifting sometimes, moving supplies around the small floor space we have. We talk to the farmers about the weather and how the season is going, which is a nice change of pace. Sometimes we run out of things unexpectedly, and we have to tell people to come back next week. It’s not perfect, but we do what we can with the space and time we have. It’s just us here, working through the daily tasks in this little corner of Kashmere Gate.
