The pieces are made from neem, also known as the Indian lilac or margosa tree, the trees grow readily all over India even in the harshest conditions and they have an amazing ability to withstand air and water pollution. Neem restores and maintains soil fertility naturally, and pesticides can be made from Neem that are of natural plant origin. Most houses have a neem tree, and the neem is farmed sustainably throughout India and often used in organic farming.
