Social Nursery
for
Green Village Entrepreneurs
Villages are the back bone for a resilient national economy. The social cost of migration from Villages to cities is quite huge. Cost of infrastructure development in cities is already burdening the Indian Economy.
Here Treepurasun, with its village centric approach, is attempting to become a catalyst in rural development by launching its Greenpreneur program which can also be called Village Entrepreneur & Eco-preneur.
The Objective is to develop cluster of Nurseries in villages & support them in marketing and reaching out to customers by operating from villages itself.
With increasing temperature , world is withering in heat, it is high time we all collectively make our earth more greener and make it a better place to live.
Treepurasun, intends to develop social nurseries, which will be collective & cooperative efforts by villagers, who wish to remain in villages and also grow their income potential and also support in fight against global warming.
Treepurasun, on a 1st leg, is working along with a NGO, M/s. Responsible Citizens iYakkam, who are in to greening activities on hills in Tamilnadu. RCi has been identifying the needs for nurseries in many fields across many villages. With their on-filed inputs, Treepurasun will help villagers to form clusters to develop nurseries in Villages & give them a platform to sell their plants to houses and offices across the country.
Nurseries shall offer fruit trees, flowering trees, ornamental trees, herbs to cater to every needs of the end users and also enrich the atmosphere with the collective effects of the greens grown.
Each Nursery will be located in a village or may be a cluster of 2/ 3 villagers. Treepurasun will assess each village and identify the availability of good soil, seeds and safe environment to grow & sell the saplings.
Villagers will be given training on commercial & technical aspects of running a nursery. Treepurasun will enable sales of the Saplings on Online & offline platforms, which in turn will give earning potential for the villagers. This will ensure gradual growth in prosperity of Villagers' and eventually bring back the migrated population back to villages.
It is not just growth of plants, it is growth of economy in villages & building the nation, by adding more green to the environment and bring in more prosperity to the nook & corners of the society.
Very great initiative. All the very best
