What Do You Think About Urban Gardening?

In every city, most of the people are too busy in their lives. However, some of them manage to do urban gardening. The word urban gardening is described as growing plants or crops in the urban areas such as cities or big towns. People who live in the cities or big towns designed their home’s structures for growing some plants. It is commonly see in their own balconies. This kind of activity could serves as a hobby and contribute to protecting our environment. I think it is really possible and no excuse for planting some crops or plants in our own space especially if living in the condominium-type buildings.

I am doing it already, I am growing vegetables in containers and I also grow sprouts because it is the easiest vegetable to grow. I love eating sunflower sprouts because it only take them 4 days to harvest and unlike mung bean sprouts, they can be eaten raw. I also love sauteing them. I also grow oyster mushrooms indoors.

@CaptAlbertWhisker It is a good thing you had started to have some indoor veggies. It is fun to cook if the resources within the house.

Some of our bigger towns have these urban or community gardens and they are very popular. I think it is a wonderful idea.

@Shavkat When we were overseas we loved the colourful window-boxes on many of the houses.

We live in the country and enjoy our garden. We would really miss our garden. It is nice to see people growing plants in window boxes and common land. These gardens bring wildlife and colour into the concrete jungle.

@Lucky15 I like the idea having veggie plants in the kitchen. You can have the ingredients as needed when cooking.
