Establishment of Herbal Gardens - 2016
The Advisory Board of the Organization decided to establish Herbal Gardens at schools with the participation of the winners of the Green Lane Program of 2016. It was initiated by Mitsubishi Corporation, Japan through the Mitsubishi Corporation of Colombo Branch.   
 
It was significant that funds were approved under the “Project Estimated Budget of 2016” by Mitsubishi Corporation, Japan.
we were planning to implement Four Herbal Gardens this year, but two winners were selected from the same school of Pannipitiya Dharmapala Vidyalaya and also in this school we established the herbal garden in 2012.
 
Therefore, we have implemented this year only the two herbal gardens as follows,
  • Lanka Sabha Vidyalaya, Battaramulla
  • St’Pauls Girls School, Milagiriya
