Cubbon Park with Kavya was a rich productive, learning experience. She made us look at the park in a new light, even for old Bangaloreans. She got us to look closer, pick fonts, observe slugs and understand the ecosystem. We engaged in conversations about larger issues in the conservation space which helped us connect the little observations with the big picture. For instance, the role of bees in the ecosystem; the repercussions of clearing bee hives. All of this sensitized students to problems beyond their immediate surroundings. Kavya has been very patient and handheld the students through the big and small issues and helped them engage with the space. She also provided a wealth of resources to pursue the subject further. It was beyond just learning names of trees and how to identify them. It was a lot of storytelling, fun and laughter which allowed one to be fully immersed and connect to the place and most likely fall in love trees
