Seeds for the future

It is definitely a back-breaking hard work. Guarantee will lower your cholestrol level.

Less wastage of wood compared to using modern chainsaw.

We have to support the green colour.

Calming view. Natural eye soothing treatment.

Less heat under the tree canopy

Tree vandalism.

Villagers are allowed to utilise the land under the tree. A very good example of community forest.
