We tour their home site where they have been developing water and food resilience over the last 30 years on a small city lot. They were able to maintain their own water supplies while the city of 10 million was crippled by water shortages. Guided by daughter Gayathri Ramachandran, we visit the work and see the effects of a small-scale groundwater restoration and water harvesting project that has dramatically improved the lives and sustainability of this family, setting a shining example for Chennai and the world.\n
