Cultivating Gardening
With the challenges we face during these tough times, the pandemic has drastically brought
us worries and difficulties, particularly on our living. In order to prolong the resources to live such us
food and materials that is essential to daily survival, what can I do to find ways to preserve and help
my family during this crisis?
A way to be able to help my family with the needs of enough food resources is fruit and
vegetables gardening. In this way, we could have easy-to-get- and free food. However, our vacant
lot is too small on which is why one of the best solutions I could think is to plant and grow vegetable
inside the house. This vegetable includes such onions, tomatoes, basil, herbs, and many more that
is better enough to bloom in such small spaces. Not only that these plants are easy to grow, they are
also fresh and healthy to eat which also leads us to adapt eating more on plant-based food
consumption. Eating less meat and more on these fruits and vegetables promotes healthy mind and
body.
Additionally, mastering of food preservation and planting fruits and vegetable can contribute
to minimizing food waste around the area. Speaking of minimizing things, this encourages every
household to audit the plastic handling and eliminate plastic usage. But to use products that have
more sustainable packaging and limiting plastic packaging can as well cause positive impact in the
development of the environment.
Reducing electric bill and energy consumption by unplugging the unused electronics can
also be a little way to help my parents. It will save money for more essential expenses and all. To
sum up, let me remind that we should always be mindful of the things around us and to take
advantage to it in a good way for our own benefits and be responsible as a human especially in this
midst of pandemic. Every person can literally help change and improve our environment, besides we
need it to survive as human species on Earth.
