Hello Nairalanders

The days are becoming hard and expensive each passing day. One would wonder why it’s so.
With pockets of violence and herders destroying farmlands with their cows which has prevented so many farmers from cultivating in their farms...one wouldn’t be surprised on why food prices keep skyrocketing. A big bag of semo as at yesterday goes for 5k currently,...Gari is a no go area. Most people have resorted to using Alibo and Corn starch for their soups.

Now this post sets out to encourage every nairalander to create a garden in his or her abode. It’s good if one subsistently cultivates that which he consumes at home..instead overstretching our farmers in this hard times. How about having a garden where u plant pepper,okra,tomatoe,ugu,garden eggs,watermelon etc
Do u know that even if a piece of land isn’t available in ur backyard u can use cement bags or even abandoned tyres to create a mobile garden for yourself.

Now if u are a proud gardener let’s show Nairanders how sweet it is to create one and enjoy the little things it produces.

I noticed scent leaves love u to care for them like Babies so as to grow well...I had to massage this one two days back and till the soil around it for it to start bringing out it leaves

May God bless all your endeavour. Indeed, this is a good way to go

Thank u Sir. Let's cultivate a bit of what we eat.

We shouldn't all be interlocking the floors of our compound all through..we should endeavour to leave ground for gardening activities

Following.... I have decided to start planting my vegetables. However ugu scares me because it has rules...like you can't just cut it anyhow.
