The Birth of Idea💡
Weaarambh
"With the dreams blossom into reality, Weaarambh came into existence!"
Finding inspiration in the simplest of things — the bouquet of flowers received by me on the birthday. I noticed that after a few days, the beautiful flowers would wilt and end up in the trash. But instead of letting them go to waste, I decided to create something out of them. This was the beginning of my journey towards a sustainable future, and soon, I discovered that there was a lot of potential in flower waste that people usually overlooked.
After seeking permission to collect flower waste from Hanuman Setu, the journey of a milestone began towards turning flower waste into usable products. The research was carried out extensively on the products that could be made, and what the market was looking for. And finally, on 15th December, the first product was launched- organic Holi colours made from natural ingredients such as beetroot, palak, and flowers. The products were an instant hit and received a positive response from the public. Stalls were put up in many colleges and various other places, and the feedback was overwhelming. Buoyed by the success of our first product, me and my team have launched other products such as incense sticks and dhoopbatti. And the journey continues from Turning Trash into Treasures with the motto NOTHING IS WASTE!
