Q: Hi, i'm interested in the kitchen garden project being developed by Greater Kochin Development Authority. Can someone provide me with details about the same?
Well, GCDA Chairman N. Venugopal said that the corporation has plans to widen the scope of the project by involving the residents associations in Ernakulam. Cash prizes will be given to people, who successfully participate in the initiative.
Did you know that the mayor said that the Corporation will extend all help to the initiative that would boost production of vegetables in the State and achieve self sufficiency. That in my opinion is a pretty nice thing to say from the government's side.
I was attending the press conference, and the mayor was speaking at the distribution of seeds and fertilizers to beneficiaries under the GCDA’s ‘Ente Adukalathottam’ (my kitchen garden) project in Kochi, last week.
Well according to the Mayor, Mr. Chammany said that the Kochi Corporation is ready to provide fertilizers free of cost besides joining hands with the authority in marketing the products. So you can expect complete government support.
Well as far as i know, Mayor Tony Chammany has extended support to the nature club initiative of the Greater Cochin Development Authority aimed at generating pesticide-free vegetables and ensuring food security. Great news for the city's infrastructure.
