Dear All,
too far to join, so to let you know how inspiring your work continues to be.
And to contribute at least a small bit from my side, musically speaking:
Based on south Indian temple motifs, my Kerala-based artist friend PV Jayan created a cloth version for my music workshops (they are actually lined up horizontally for that purpose). They help me to engage with participants young and young at heart, besides being admired as a dignified, easy to carry backdrop.

And to contribute at least a small bit from my side, musically speaking:
I always found the poetic references to nature in music helpful even if (still) under-appreciated:
thinking of the animals corresponding to the Saptasvaras, for instance (even if not to be taken too literally);
or more of potential value for music and storytelling sessions at your venue, what about the role of bees and bumble bees in poetry.

The amazing bamboo flute's holes do resemble those made by insects in the wild and could well explain the love of flute music going back to ancient times and different places (I once checked in Wayanad whether the bumble bee holes would yield a sound - confirmed beyond expectation also by the tribal kids who happened to be nearby and could produce a flute sound on the naturally weathered bit of bamboo I had picked up in a grove).

So I enclose Jayan's creation with the suggestion: ask local teachers whether schoolchildren from your neighbourhood could create their own versions on paper, as murals, lamp shades ... who knows where there imagination may lead them? (Personally I wouldn't make it a contest with prizes as that may dishearten those not winning - something a dear senior friend in Kerala cautions about - the effort and motivation for change should be at the heart of any learning process.)
This may well be the seed of engaging with neighbouring school events during future Family Fun Gardening events.
After all, your delightful newsletters how creative, sensitive and talented your team is, just as its public.
Not to forget Usha's writings on the subject of human-animal relations, so complex but also full of untapped potential, which would surely compliment those community events where urgently needed changes of habits and perceptions would be facilitated by playful interludes.
It reminds me of seeing Dr. Shivarama Karanth in action in the 1980s, the courage and foresight it takes to do what he just like you are taking up; and the creativity in pursuit of integrating it in daily life, in "mindfulness" for the sake of future generations and nature that's more than a resource to be "mined" rather than ever more divisions and subdivisions that compartmentalize our thoughts and relationships (ha, there's a potential slogan, "minding before mining"?!).
Cordial greetings,
Ludwig
