We started building our kitchen garden and needed supports for climbing vegetables. We first looked at buying old iron rods from a scrap shop. On the way there, we found bamboo poles that KSEB had cut during tree trimming and left by the roadside. We got permission and collected the bamboo, using it in our garden.
