1     ROSES AND THORNS :

·         The project gave us a wonderful experience in learning and also implementing the organic farming techniques. It was the first experience for all of us to visit an Agricultural Office and to get guidance from the Head of the Department. The time we have spent with the students in the school was also thrilling. The way we made the students more interactive and also how we played games to create an interest in them is still memorizing. After knowing about their views we were surprised and happy that they know more than us.
