Doke is the name of a very productive organic tea garden in India. The lush garden rests in an area called Pothia, in Kishanganj. The area of the Doke Tea garden is in general very poor, with high unemployment and civil unrest. In 1998 Rajiv Lochan decided to plant new tea bushes on a small plot of land made available through the government. The government had deemed this land useless for agricultural purposes, but Rajiv persisted. With the help of the garden workers and local farmers the garden began to flourish to everyone’s surprise.
