Mr. Abid Hussain who worked as Volunteer in our Organic Fields at Roshni 
“In my quest to connect with nature and learn the basics of chemical-free farming, I decided to volunteer at the farm of Roshni Association.
My volunteer activities were about assisting with the various farm works: cutting fodder for the bovine friends living here, preparing the land for the new batch of crops, creating a nursery of the new plants to be grown, weeding, harvesting and some landscaping work. One really fascinating activity was preparing “Biodynamic” potions, the recipes of which have been created after a close observation of the elements and cycles that exist in nature. These natural potions are then sprayed onto the land and the plants for improving their health. 
A crucial takeaway of my volunteer work was learning more about ‘special’ persons. Initially, it was about tolerating them, since I wasn’t used to being around such people. However, gradually it turned into a process of seeing them as my colleagues and eventually, as my friends. Spending time and working with them day in day out, really helped me evolve as a human being. I had come to learn about farming, but I ended up realizing so much more”
