EBTL spans 68 acres of undulating land between a forest and the CT Palli village in Krishnagiri district. Home to an old elephant walkway, surrounded by dry-deciduous forests and a plethora of floral and faunal diversity, the site would have once been a brimming forest. Over time, however, many of the valley's slopes and elevations had been flattened monocropping and agricultural terraces and bunds. Since having taken ownership for the site, working on and with the land over the last four years, we’ve begun to see the results of the restorative efforts.
