Watch: A glimpse of a new Miyawaki forest near Narayan Pujari Nagar in Mumbai
The Miyawaki method is an afforestation technique pioneered by a Japanese botanist, whereby dense forests are created on degraded lands.
Mumbai’s first Miyawaki forest blooms. This is at Narayan Pujari Nagar near Worli. The site has about 1800 trees with 40 varieties of plants. Former BMC commissioner Praveen Pardeshi who sent me this video, commissioned this last year. pic.twitter.com/I7RsqCgNke
