Self-growing self-cooking

Local Association launched "Kent Gardens" work. They tell the reason for this study on their websites:

The number of people living in our cities is growing more than year. Once in our country, the large part of the population lives in villages today in 70 percent i cities. Those who come to fame are not only physically, but mentally, so they quickly get away from villages, today she was farming in the village of maternal-father or nine-dedesi of children, who grew in the tree of tomatoes.

When this alienation increases with a huge acceleration, we eat bananas from Central America, send apples to UK. Ships-boats-transparents now carry fruit and vegetables between the continents as well as cities. While the cost of this transport remains less, the cost of the climate change of fossil fuels that lead to the atmosphere is very high. Cycle life of nature, precipitation, migrations, summer-winter separation, frosts and wildlife are destroyed in irreversible way.

In many cities of the world, they provide a portion of the need for vegetables-meyve in the kitchens of millions of people. This makes it possible; a small backyard or a large balcony-teras. 11 thousand people in Montreal, Canada produced tens of tons of fruit-sebze last year. The capital of Cuba was built in 2,2 million Havana, 80% of the nutrients consumed by cities. China’s largest city in Shanghai has 2500 kilometers of space again urban garden. There are two cities in Moscow.

Local Society helps those who want to build their own urban garden in Istanbul. The aim of the project is to establish city gardens in various districts of Istanbul. This project is done with its own facilities. It doesn’t get hibe from any institution, with the contributions of peasants, who give a full volunteer work network, labor, faith and more seedlings.

The overall benefits of garden

– In fresh vegetables, the amount of antioxidant, the amount of floor is more than the expected one. The greenness you eat from a clean soil makes us a healthier life.

– Composting from domestic wastes, giving it to the garden as fertilizer, preventing early saturation of city garbage.

– Each new green area created in cities attracts rain and prevents drought, allowing water levels increase in dams.

–Kent gardens prevent the soil from being flooded by increasing the amount of water withdrawal, floods and floods from water.

– Because the amount of vegetable-meyve from the city decreases, it does not need to use more fossil fuel and contributes to the prevention of climate change.

– Meaning greenness, means clean air and more oxygen. The city gardens allow the city to clean.

–Each year, the increase of the decreasing agricultural rearm, more vegetable-meyve is produced. [email protected]

–Enjoy children and teenagers to meet the earth, harvest learning and love the environment. [

–Emekli and old towns do not deal with the soil, make the value of leisure times, feel useful to them, and the place of body health.

– In the same district, the city garden has met each other, share experiences, socialize, the development of neighboring relations, and prevent them from foreigning each other.

– Especially when the narrow incomes are spent to feed 20% and 40% of their income, thanks to the urban gardens, it provides significant contribution to family budgets.

–More than products that have been harvested from gardens, data to neighbors, pedestrian schools, children's ecirgeme institutions, etc., contribute to the creation and development of the sense of help in cities.

Processes of the project;

–Project starts on March 01, 2011.

–It is enough to refer to the classification. [

– Meetings are organized before gardeners sitting in the district. In these meetings we learn who need team-ups, who need help. We also calculate the soil size of gardeners and calculate the number of seedlings they need. [

– Starting from midMay, we start planting seedlings that we supply and distribute free. [

– In the meetings we will do after October, we share our experiences and solve problems that may arise.

– With July, it is now time to harvest and we cook our own salads and dishes from our own vegetables.
