plaintextA
The 22-year-old aircraft engineer Sijo Zachariah had been living in Dubai.But he and his father were in the southwestern Indian state of Kerala for a family wedding when the government placed the area on lockdown.He was bothered realizing they couldn't come back to their home for a while.What the young man had most in mind was how they were going to feed themlves.Groceries in the area were nearly empty.Places that sold plants for gardening were clod.
So,Zachariah and his father collected eds from whatever fruits and vegetables they could find and planted them on their family's land.Kerala has much rain and sun,making farming easier.Over time,the garden helped feed 20 other families. "We started teaching others how to grow their own crops," he said.
Zachariah became interested in permaculture-a movement that says farming should work w
ith the physical world instead of trying to control the land,thus making farms more sustainable and fruitful.Zachariah had studied and worked in Wales in Britain.He wondered why the food in Wales was better than the food he ate at home.Zachariah came to understand the food was fresher.It came from local farms and wasn't treated with chemicals before traveling to be sold far away.
Zachariah considered a new profession：farming.He connected with other people online who are thinking of a future in farming as well.He said, "There're many people like me who are genuinely curious,but they are stuck somewhere."
Zachariah has left the farm in the hands of his neighbors since returning home after the restriction was removed.He has decided to become a farmer. "It's a big change.But this makes me happy-helping others and being in nature," he said.There is one more reason he was happy with his farming life. "I was getting quality time with my dad as well,so it was like a win-win," he added.
