Happy Saturday Bloom & ATHMED mentorship group members. Our group mission is clear- Mentoring Youth & Celebrating Nature. Love, kindness, respect & honesty bind us together in our endeavors. We keep religion & politics out of this association. We learn and we teach. We share and we provide. We protect the innocent and help the needy. We seek blessings of the creator and our reward is our fellowship & joy- nothing more. We laugh and we entertain. We nurture children, animals and plants and we recognize we need love and nurturing too regardless of how old or young we are.
We are a family of over 600 individuals now, young & senior, all races, all religions, 3 continents, 4 parks, numerous professions & diverse ethnic backgrounds - building communities through our parks in Fort Smith AR & Edinburgh TX, Hyderabad India & Bungoma Kenya. We share our hobbies with others - gardening, fishing, boating, horseback riding, pets, history, travel, music, art & sports. Our events bring joy to the children and grownups alike. The bloom seed planted 5 years ago is established but still a sapling. Let us pray it will grow into a beautiful tree providing flowers spreading fragrance & beauty, fruits for nourishment and shade to the tired. Thank for being on this joyful Bloom train and a traveler on this adventure.
Your friend,
Dr. Amit Taggarse

Bloom peacock Krishna dances in Fort Smith Arkansas USA while kids in Bungoma Kenya are excited while Patrick & Anne supervise building of the pool and event center at Bloom Park. In a world divided by greed and hatred, Bloom strives to focus on children & youth to teach them to be secular, inclusive, happy and successful. Thank you Bloom & ATHMED (Advanced therapies and medical education) members for the fellowship and support. Dr. Amit Kishore Taggarse

Saturday Feb. 21, 2026.
Hi Bloom family: I trust all of you are doing well. I am hoping to spend the day at Bloom Park Fort Smith feeding the animals and taking advantage of horse therapy ! It is not all relaxation as when they are fighting for the carrots it can get quite feisty and stressful ! 🤣 Colton and Justen are getting the park ready for the annual Bloom spring picnic so let’s get the bright colors out, rods & tackle out for the fishing competition and ladies, find the Derby hats and fight for the prize. 🤣
Dates will be out after I discuss with Lacey, Lisa, Andy, Justen, Israel & Colton.
Winter has been long and hard and I’m sure we are all ready for spring, I can’t wait to get my garden vegetables started.
Amit

Announcement:
I am very pleased to announce a partnership with Mr. Colton Redding of Redding Industries LLC who will be developing the Bloom Park Fort Smith and has accepted to join the Board of Directors of the nonprofit. He will be starting work soon and I therefore am excited that we will likely be on schedule to have our spring picnic in April like we did last year- fishing, kayaking, games, treasure hunt, horseback riding, food, drinks & music ! I have also invited Justen Cameron, Israel Palacios & Aditya Taggarse to join. Neena Hemmady, Melanie Gurisco Peterson, Luis Madrigal, Rati Tripathi & Chandler Doss- thank you for being on board.
I also invite you to plan a trip to Kenya with me and the Bloom group to witness the inauguration of Bloom Park Bungoma and then to Serengeti to see the great migration of thousands of wildebeest, zebra & giraffes attracting thousands of visitors in late September-early October.
In late December, I am hoping to lay foundation for the Chitra Yoga Hall at Bloom Hyderabad India and have a two day stay-over at the park & lake with fun events and amazing Indian food like Jana & Ahsan organized in December 2024. Three events. One large family. You are a valued member so start planning and packing ! 🤣
Focus of Bloom is simple- Nature Conservation & Mentoring Children. Stay on the Bloom Train. Good night !
Amit 🙏💕

Happy Sunday to my Bloom and Athmed (Advanced therapies and medical education) family:
January is mid-way and I’m always amazed at how time flies. The goals of this group are simple:
This year, we are in the process of building three beautiful parks and would like to create a permaculture education model, “teaching kids to honor nature, grow your own food, respect animals & plants, and have a loving relationship with family and friends, especially ones parents”. We will accomplish that by having places for wonderful group activities-fishing, boating, gardening and raising animals.
Athmed-we are in the process of drafting a research paper outlining our experience with advanced heart failure surgery having built two programs in two states in the US, TX & AR, opportunities to share knowledge and exploring areas for improvement through discussion in the chats.
I would like every member in this group to seriously consider being a part of three events this year which will be fun for your entire family.
1. Spring inauguration event likely in April in Fort Smith, Arkansas.
2. October inauguration event in Kenya, during the great migration of the wildebeest.
3. December inauguration event in India for Chitra Yoga Center at Bloom Lake Hyderabad.
I will plan accordingly and share the dates, but if you are in that country or wish to travel to it, please budget and plan accordingly. Please share educational and motivational videos without hesitation in this chat, but remember, no politics and no religion, we are a secular group committed to “love, respect, trust, and kindness-the four pillars of Bloom”. Stay blessed. 🙏🌺💕

INVITATION

Sunday Bloom family update :
Hi friends, firstly, again thank you for being a part of this journey where we share our lives and together building three parks centered on providing healthy outdoor fun for children in the community and keeping them away from bad habits. Activities with Mother Nature, whatever the hobby, is healing to the soul and builds great bonds within and outside the family. Sharing motivational videos and activities revolving around hobbies that we enjoy so much is our way of creating friendships with no selfish motive and sharing our joy with others.
Second, we are non-political and secular, but are people of faith and believe in kindness, generosity, forgiveness, gratitude, honesty, peace, love and joy and we are not afraid of dreaming of the best version of ourselves, healthy in body mind and spirit. We all have our unique life situations and challenges, financial and otherwise, but are willing to give help and take help.
Third, I am very excited that 53 families in Hyderabad, India have submitted affidavits requesting help from the Bloom family and will have their own house lots to build cottages, most of the paperwork is completed and permits are applied for and awaited. The park will also feature places of fun & prayer including boating, yoga, etc.
Four, Bloom Kenya is 2 hours from Lake Victoria & 2 hours from Serengeti-Masaimara wild life reserves. While we help the children of Bungoma see better days by having fun activities like swimming and sports, we can also enjoy the wonderful wildlife & splendors of Africa though Bloom activities.
Five, Bloom Fort Smith is a wonder by itself, Gurisco lake, the horses & the autumn colors will bring joy and watching my little Bloom Princess Andy help me measure and place flag markings for planting fruit trees was such a joy ! One kid having fun was joy, seeing many more have fun will be exhilarating !
Lastly, I see a lot of fun in the hobby chat subgroups of medical education, mentorship, pets, horses, cooking, fishing, etc. Please stay within your hobby subject as consideration for others who may not be interested in other content.
Please check out our website update in progress at www.thebloomprojects.org and certainly follow “Bloom Parks and Projects” on Facebook if you’re on it.
Bloom is an offering to God and nonprofit activity so stay on the Bloom train and it’ll take you on a wonderful trip as it has for me since the last 5 years after it was born out of a prayer.
You have 600 bloom brothers and sisters all over the world now, each individual very special and wanting to share their life and joy.
Have a wonderful day, Fort Smith is getting ready for some cold weather ! Stay warm and safe.
Amit
