U n’ I with Rashmi Shetty- Shivani Kapoor

Our guest today is Shivani Kapoor

Shivani [or Sonia as she is more popularly known] is an environmentalist and nature lover, committed to greening the world around us for the last 10+ years.

A self-taught horticulturist, Shivani specializes in sustainable horticulture. where the core philosophy centers around growing flora and fauna suited to the climate of the region and one which fosters the symbiotic relationship between plants, birds, and bees.

Shivani has been instrumental in making Legend, a 14-acre condominium into one of the greenest in Gurgaon by transforming a rather barren landscape into dense greenery and planting and growing over ~250 large trees. With the active support of conscientious citizens, she started a project of developing green zones in the green belts of Sector 57. Barren patches are now flourishing green.

Shivani also led a citizens' movement amongst ~ 2,000 residents to convert the entire society into a “green society” which recycles all its waste and contributes nothing to the ever-growing landfills.

Shivani is committed to helping anyone who is choosing to build a greener planet and claims she learns mostly from nature and the “malis” who have been her teachers for many years.

Shivani is also the founder of marigold_by_sonia, a green venture that is primarily into landscaping & greening any space - from a tiny apartment area to larger land spaces.

Listen in as she shares her journey to understanding how nature has become her caretaker
