“We felt the need to do something so that greenery can be developed and accommodated conveniently in urban areas. Our Nagarkrishi aims to provide support and encourage those who love gardening even if it is on a small patch,” Kamrul, who joined the start-up as its chief executive officer (CEO) said.
Besides teaching and training on gardening practices, another operation of ‘Nagarkrishi’ is its ‘Little farmer’ project.
In this project, school-children are given hands-on training on how to plant trees and caring for them.
“We aim to produce urban farmers. Therefore, we want to spread our love for plants to the future generation,” the Nagarkrishi CEO added.
