I have participated in this event. I went to MLA Layout on Benerraghatta Road. It was initiated by Vinod, a resident of that locality and "Trees for Free" supported them by providing guidance and tree sapplings.
There were almost 30 enthusiastic volunteers in this activity. We could plant almost 50 - 75 saplings. I could support them by watering and planting. I should really feel proud when the sapplings grow up to big trees and make this world a better to place to live..
Care for the sapplings would be taken by Vinod.
