Hi everyone!
I need some help please! I will be visiting Ooty in a couple of weeks. I'm very interested in seeing the essential oils distillation - I heard about some huts in Kotagiri where eucalyptus oil 's distilled but couldn't find any more info. Anyone know how to find/locate those huts....? I use oils in my work and I'm coming to Kerala and Tamil Nadu to see as much as possible of the oils production.... Help!! |

Rajered, you are an Angel! Thank you!
 Can I have one more question....? The last one....? I think I know the answer to it but just to confirm... In Marayoor people go to the 'sandalwood forest' and all they find is the fenced off area of the sandalwood trees... But there is also a government run depo - I think it is on the other side of the main road to the forest... isn't it? I realy want to see the depo... How do I go about it...? Do I need to arrange a visit.........? |
