Dhanuta Farmers Cultivate Marigold Flowers for Festival Demand

Dhankuta. Dhankuta's farmlands are currently full of marigold flowers. The yellow and orange flowers are not only enhancing the beauty of the village slopes and fields but also increasing the farmers' hope for income.

As Tihar approaches, flower farmers are busy picking flowers, making garlands, and delivering them to the market. Tihar is a festival of flowers, garlands, diyas, and Deusi-Bhailo. Flowers hold importance from decorating home windows to making the Bhai Tika garland for brothers. Turning this demand into an opportunity, farmers in Dhankuta are commercially cultivating flowers.
