Garden Care

Garden Care is just us here in Shivaji Nagar, right near the Chinar Hotel. It started because things around here were looking pretty dry and we figured we could help out. We spend most of our days with dirt under our fingernails, moving pots around and making sure the saplings get enough water when the sun is hitting hard. It’s not fancy work, but it keeps us busy. People stop by when their backyard looks like a mess or if they want something green for their balcony. We don't have a big office or anything, just the space here where we keep the tools and the plants. Sometimes the weather doesn't cooperate, or a batch of seeds doesn't take, but that's just how it goes with this kind of thing. We’ve been at this address for a while now. Most folks find us because they saw the sign while heading toward the hotel. It gets dusty on this road, so we're always hosing things down. We don't use any high-tech systems, just common sense and a bit of patience with the soil. If you're walking by, you'll likely see one of us out front trimming something or loading up a truck. We try to keep things simple and just do the job that needs doing today. It’s a lot of manual labor, lifting heavy bags of compost and digging holes, but we prefer being outside anyway. That’s pretty much the story of how we run things.
