Leaf Bank

Where Fallen Leaves Earn Compost as Interest

दिल्ली का अनोखा बैंक - सूखे पत्ते जमा करें, खाद पाएं

What is Leaf Bank?

India's First Leaf Banking System

Leaf Bank is Delhi's innovative environmental initiative where people deposit fallen autumn leaves and receive compost as interest in return.

पतझड़ के सूखे पत्तों का बैंक, जहां ब्याज में मिलती है उपजाऊ खाद

The Unique Concept

Just like money in a bank earns interest, your deposited leaves earn you nutrient-rich compost after the decomposition process.

Deposit: Dry Autumn Leaves

Interest: Organic Compost

Our Mission

To transform urban waste into wealth while addressing Delhi's air pollution caused by burning of dry leaves during autumn.

पर्यावरण संरक्षण और प्रदूषण नियंत्रण का अनूठा प्रयास
