In order to improve biodiversity, increase the green cover and be a deterrent to future encroachment of Government Land, KKPA obtained permission from the Authorities to plant tree saplings along the outer bund of Vellalore Lake. KKPA volunteers along with College Students and well-meaning citizens, worked on Sundays to remove the undergrowth of weeds, thorny shrubs and unwanted trees, levelled the land, dug up the soil, manured and made appropriate beds and planted more than 7500 tree saplings covering 274 different native species, using the Miyawaki plantation method, to accommodate the maximum number of trees in a small area.
