Food crisis ? Go for urban container gardening (Jojo ROM / Christian ALVAREZ LUZONG)

Posted on January 22, 2012 by

A message of Jojo ROMand a nice photo of Christian ALVAREZ LUZONG at the Facebook page of the Home Farmers Club (Urban Container Gardening Enthusiasts), clearly showing how every family can find solutions for the food crisis.  You can’t afford fresh food because of the high prizes ?  Produce it yourself in your backyard or on your balcony.  Container gardening offers numerous solutions.

Agriculture for my family is neither a course, a profession nor a career…it is our way of life…and never faster-fatter-bigger one… it is grown with faith, hope and love. Fertilized with wisdom, care, patience and humility….and we believe that big and small feeds us all…
