Construction activities at the Poomaale Estate continue. The much awaited Blyton Bungalow has finally reached its finishing stages. The furniture is scheduled to arrive in the first week of March and the external landscaping to be done by around the second week.
The grid connectivity at the estate has been approved with a 63KVA transformer and the connection should be up by the 1st week of March. This would be well in time for the Estate Managers house, which is also inching towards completion. We expect Rathan, our Estate Manager, to start living there by April.
The markings of the private estates are also in progress and we aim to start construction soon.
Last but not the least, coffee picking continues at the estate. The yield in Block 1 has gone-up considerably to around 3 to 4 Kgs per plant, which is much higher as compared to 1 to 2 Kgs from last year. Just Block 1 has contributed more than 100 bags this time.
