Organo Et School (OES) is very happy to launch October Month Nature Journal. OES brings this month's journal with joy to add to the festive mood of October, in our country.
As children prepare for going back to school after a yearlong absence and online classes, we are looking at a fresh beginning altogether. The parents can contribute to saving the environment by helping their kids
Meena of OES and I were discussing the importance of teaching young ones about different ways to keep in touch with Nature and her ways. One thing led to another and we were actively thinking of conducting a basic introduction course to the Permaculture workshop.
Organized by Organo Et School and taught by Certified Permaculture teachers Uma Iyer and Apoorva Gautham, participants experienced an interactive and engaging learning session that gave a comprehensive overview on permaculture.
We all will agree, without doubt, that the digital revolution is here! And that our children will be learning both on-campus and online for the near future. We are also living in a world hugely different from what we grew up in.
With the rain letting up a little, the farm was drier than last week, but we also had a lot of overgrowth to deal with. So, while our team were looking at recreating the farm patches, we continued our learning online.
Organo et School is delighted to announce the – PLANT THE SEED – Monthly Competition. This competition is inspired by Organo's core value of celebrating holistic eco-living.
“Permaculture is a philosophy of working with, rather than against nature; of protracted and thoughtful observation rather than protracted and thoughtless labor; and of looking at plants and animals in all their functions, rather than treating any area as a single product system.” — Bill Mollison
It was another rainy morning with few sunny breaks thrown in by Rain Gods. Children logged in from their computers for an online session with our in-house expert Meena Murugappan.
For the longest time, paper napkins and paper tissues were not a part of Indian everyday living. We were content with using cloth towels for face, hand and body drying. Over the last couple of decades, these thin papers rapidly made their way into our catering services, restaurants, households and offices.
What a rainy week we saw in Hyderabad! We experienced a Cloud Burst, which was followed by days of consistent rains, and resulted in minor flooding of our Children’s farm. While our temporary drainage solution worked, the trench could not match the water-logging rate to the water-drainage rate.
A key component of Natural Farming methods is Soil Health. Beneficial micro-organisms help "Dead Soil" become"Living Soil". Micro-organisms decompose and ferment organic parts ofthe soil system, converting them into humus containing nutrients and releasinghormones facilitating plant growth. In addition, they improve soil aggregatequality and soil stability, enabling it to retain nutrients and moisture (Kengoand Hui-lian, 2000).
Happy Teacher’s Day! We wish to express our gratitude to everyone on the journey to share their learnings and teachings with the greater world – Here’s to all the teachers, parents, children, leaders and more! And most importantly, we wish to express our deepest gratitude to the most generous teacher – Nature!
Weekend began, like always, with weeding and checking for plant and soil health. The children noticed that the Cluster beans and Chilly plants needed some TLC (Tender Love and Care).
