On Sunday, July 28, 2024, the Rotary Club of Alephata Main took a hands-on approach to support local farmers in the remote Ambe Hatvij region of Junnar by directly participating in planting rice seedlings in paddy fields. This initiative, driven by the club’s president, Prof. Amol Kapase, aimed to assist farmers grappling with challenges such as climate change and labour shortages. Directors and members of the club, including Rajendra Jadhav, Shivaji Gore, Arun Hulawale, Mohan Jadhav, Rushi Pol, Reshma Kapase, Sarita Gore, Sangita Jadhav and others, joined local farm labours and villagers under the guidance of Shankar Pardhi. The experience was marked by the serene beauty of the misty blue sky, the local women's traditional bhalar song and the invigorating rain, Sand & small stones providing acupressure to the feet, Pristine air pumping lungs creating a profound and uplifting connection with the land and community. Actually we got cosmic nutrition during rice cultivation.
