Well, old people are like a storehouse of knowledge and there is so much for us to learn from them. Here, I would like to talk about the skill of gardening that I have learnt from my grandfather. Actually, my grandfather who is about 70 years of age now has spent most of his life doing farming. Since, we have moved to city now, he cannot visit his farms but he spends most of his time enjoying gardening. Seeing him doing this activity I developed interest and requested him to teach me how to take care of plants. Now every evening, I spend an hour daily to help my grandpa in this pursuit. I must say he has profound(deep) knowledge of gardening and he introduced me to various species of plants and vegetables that are frequently grown at homes. He also told me about the nutrients found in soil and how to naturally improve the fertility from the domestic waste. We also grow seasonal vegetables at home and enjoy fresh home grown vegetables which most people do not. One thing that developed my further interest in this activity is making flowers pots from plastic bottles and other things as he never lets anything go waste. He plants seasonal flowers and herbs in empty plastic bottles and containers and today, we have more than two hundred such pots that enhance the beauty of our garden. I not only learn about gardening but spending time with him also helps me to learn the history and culture in a better way. I’m grateful to my grandpa for helping me to learn practical skills which keeps me physically and mentally fit.

Where it is?
When do you visit this place?
What do you do there?
And how do you feel about this place?
Actually, I am living in a city because my father and I are working right now. But, my father is from a village and belongs to a farmer family. The village is only 50 km away from the city where we are presently living. So, at least once a month we try to visit the village and my grandparents. So, I think almost two years back, and I have visited one wonderful place that is my uncle’s orange farms, where I enjoyed and learned some procedures of growing vegetables and fruits. The place was almost very far away from my grandparent’s house, so it took one hour to reach the orange farms. After going there, I felt very pleasant and refreshed because there are more trees and different types of plants also. Beside farms there is a large place where 100 cows and buffaloes shed is there and immediately I ran to see the things which are quite astonished me because my uncle is using latest technology and techniques of feeding the cows with grass and taking the milk and packing them in a packet. He explained to me each and every equipment usage of the farm. I observed all the things and even noted down some procedures because one of my cousins is going to pursue agricultural engineering, so I want to explain it to him, which can be beneficial to him in future. After that, I plucked some oranges from the farms and ate them too. The best part of the farm is he is growing those oranges organically and limiting the use of pesticides and fertilizers. So I felt the difference in the taste of oranges when compared to the oranges available in the city, which are grown chemically. The farm oranges tasted very sweeter. Even now, I try to visit his farms because I will forget all my sorrows and feel much happier because I am a nature lover.
