The story behind this piece
Every medicinal plant garden starter is made by hand by Youth Nursery, Jhagadia, with no middleman standing between the maker and you.
Every kit credits the elders whose knowledge it carries, and pays them a royalty on each sale.
Before this enterprise existed, the raw material behind this product left the village for a fraction of what you are paying — and the value addition happened somewhere else. That is the single thing this collection changes.
You are not making a donation. You are paying a fair market price to a producer who finally gets to set it.
