They dedicate all Saturdays for vegetable cultivation

Environmentalist C.P. Roy travels to Valiyakandam in Idukki every Saturday from Kottayam with the excitement of a budding farmer. He is part of a group of 21 families who came together to produce organic vegetables for their own consumption. They also sell the vegetables at a higher market price. “There is good demand for organic vegetables,” says C.P. Roy.
