WindTalkers' 6th century ride in search of 100 year old Jambhul/ Jamun trees!

Sunday 10 December 2023, we four friends cycled or biked to BAHADOLI (famously known as JAMBHULGAON) in Palghar, in search of hundred year old Jambhool/ Jamun (?Syzygium cumini). In their search, we cycled more than hundred kilometres!

The blog post is divided as follows:

Jamuns of Jambhulgaon and their 100 years old Jambhul trees.

Photos en route from sunrise.

Other things in Bahadoli.

Return trip by sunset.

I thought hundred year old living beings would look really old. But no. They look young. Almost unbelievable young and strong. What I realised is we compare their age to humans and since humans look really old even before their 100 and that is why the expectation that they should look really old.

JAMUNS OF JAMBHULGAON & THEIR 100 YEARS OLD TREES:

Now the star of our trip! The trees!

These two may be the original trees in the village, whose seeds, saplings and grafts have spread the Jamun farming in the entire village of Bahadoli , which is now known as JAMBHULGAON.

Here is the link to the article in the newspaper.

We met the villagers in this village, who welcomed us graciously in their home and took us on a tour in their village. They are proud of their efforts. The villagers and the farmers of this village are the real stars, whose efforts have won them the GI tag and their jamun fruits are export quality.

The season for Jamuns is around April-May-June.

The bamboo scaffoldings protect the trees while picking the fruits. The tree and its branches are delicate. Earlier, when the trees were shaken to collect the fruits, they used to get damaged. If someone climbs a branch to collect fruits, the branch breaks. So an innovative solution was found by the villagers. They climb these scaffoldings and pick up the fruits by hand, without harming the trees.

The point of the photo is the waning crescent Moon and Venus conjunction, happening behind us.

My friend, PP (Anna), completed his first 100 km cycling ride in this trip!

Many thanks to my friend, Dr JVT, who connected us with the villagers and they welcomed us all, treated to refreshing tea and took on a guided tour of their home and village.

While returning, my cycle's chain malfunctioned and the road-side mechanic solved it using 14 no. pana. We all were home by 19:30. Legs were aching. I was sleepy and dozed off while seeing the photos.
