A wild hit
This newspaper had recently reported about an initiative by four Mumbaikars, who gave up their corporate careers to promote organic methods of farming in the Ahmednagar district, so its tribal population could continue growing traditional grains and vegetables.

To acquaint citizens of Mumbai with the nutritional value of this almost unknown produce, Shailesh Sakharam Awate, Abhay Bhatia, Pranav Khandelwal and Karan Khandelwal organised a wild food festival last weekend. Complete with talks, musical performances and an elaborate lunch menu featuring indigenous dishes, the festival was a runaway hit, attended by some well-known faces.
