Walked around Buddha Garden today
with Rajan and was surprised and pleased to see that he has found a use for all
our discarded palmyra fruit. If they
aren’t eaten while young they are generally a nuisance as they are difficult to
compost. But Rajan says that the new
root shoots are considered a delicacy.
So he has laid them out on the top of the soil and covered with a little
earth.
All we have to do is wait about
three months for the roots to grow. Then
we cut them and sell them. According to
Rajan the Tamil Aurovilians will love it even if no one else does.
I think the money is now all
sorted out as far as the volunteers are concerned. Went to Transition School to talk about the
second year of the garden project that will start on October 10th.
