The first Arbor Day took place on the 10th of
April 1872 in Nebraska, USA. The initiative laid foundation to encourage people
to plant trees to increase awareness on the importance of planting trees. In
years following that first Arbour Day, the community tree planting idea spread
beyond the USA and in many other countries including Australia, New Zealand,
United Kingdom, Japan, Korea, Yugoslavia, Iceland, India.
Since 2001, we have been celebrating Arbor Day at our
Nurseries, by inviting our Nursery families to plant flowers, vegetables and
fruits with your children into our Nursery Organic Gardens.
This year, with the help of our "Parent Gardening
Committee 2019 - 2020", thoughts about gardening, experiences, revamping
our garden beds and repainting and labeling of wooden planks were all accomplished.
For this organic gardening season, we are growing cucumbers, carrots, pumpkins,
watermelon, herbs, tomatoes, eggplant, corn, broccoli, cauliflower, potatoes, lettuce,
sunflower and mustard.

A very productive day for the Nursery Parents & Children

While the 23rd October 2019 was the most awaited day for our green thumb Nursery Parents and Children of Crystal Valley Nursery. It was very heartwarming to see them enjoying their planting activities together.

We are very much thankful to our Nursery parents who took
special time to come and celebrate Arbour Day with us. It has always been a
pleasure to spread awareness and again, Happy Arbour Day!
