Plantation of Palmyra
Palmyra, the State Tree of Tamilnadu, has been known to strengthen lake bunds, prevent seepage, conserve soil moisture and provide abundant Palmyra food products. Over the years Palmyra trees have been cut down and used as fuel in brick kilns. During October 2018 KKPA undertook a program to plant one lakh Palmyra seeds near water bodies in Coimbatore and its suburbs. Volunteers collected 132,000 Palmyra seedlings from Coimbatore and adjacent Districts and these were planted near water bodies, by College Students, General Public and KKPA volunteers.
