WHY SHOULD YOU

GROW YOUR OWN


FOOD?

Garden Grow
 In 2019, India recorded 217 thousand metric tons of pesticide usage in
food. In 2018, the numbers were slightly lower at 213 thousand metric tons.
It is evident that the usage increases every year, thereby endangering the
lives of millions in the country. The constant usage of chemicals can cause
irreversible damage to the human body. As a result, we are exposed to the
possibility of undesirable, distorted evolution in the next upcoming
centuries.
 To help avoid such a fate of the Indian population, it is essential to
consume nutritional food on a daily basis. Given how it is close to
impossible to escape harmful substances contained in fruits and vegetables
bought from the market, it is essential that you grow your own food.
BENEFITS OF GROWING YOUR OWN FOOD

 No chemicals or pesticides to
be scared of
 When you grow your own food,
there is one thing that you can
be sure of- quality. The fruits
and vegetables that you grow
in your little urban kitchen
garden will contain no
pesticides and insecticides like
they would have had you
bought them from the market.
Instead, their goodness will
remain preserved and be used
to nourish you and your family.
 You can grow your
favorites seasonally
 Kitchen gardens make
it easier for you to
grow that you and your
family cherish eating.
The process is 100
percent natural makes
only seasonal
vegetation to be grown
with respect to factors
required for them.
 Consume fresh, healthy
vegetables
 Raw food materials often
travel long distances over
a period of one or two days
before they reach your
kitchen. This further
depletes their nourishing
properties. However, when
you grow your own food,
you consume it fresh from
the garden. As a result,
your body gets the
nourishment it needs.
 Gardening is a great
exercise
 Spending quality time with
your plants can be highly
rewarding not just in terms
of nourishment, but also in
terms of physical exercise.
Gardening can be a strenuous
job and therefore, can be a
very good form of exercise.
Spending two hours every
day in your garden is enough
to replace four or five hours
of regular exercise.
 You will save a ton of
money
 The cost of buying fruits
and vegetables from the
market is rising every day
