Grow your own harvest
Celebrate Earth Month by growing your own edibles! From health benefits, social awareness to provision of food on the table, there is so much that sustainable gardening can offer. Not only can you harvest fresh ingredients from your garden, the amount of plastic used for packaging will significantly decrease too. Experience the satisfaction of fresher flavours on your plate by growing your own herb garden.
Environmental Benefits
Having plants at home can help to filter the air and growing your own edibles can cut down on packaging that store-bought produce comes in. Less packaging = less waste. Not only does it minimise waste in landfills, carbon emissions from the transportation of produces from the farm to the store to our kitchen is greatly reduced.
Fresher Flavours
When your ingredients are just a reach away, they are fresher and the flavours are retained. Store bought ingredients that sit in the refrigerator tends to get forgotten or under-utilised. Having an edible garden allows you to fresh produce, resulting in lesser wastage and better-tasting ingredients.
More Savings
It is relatively easy to propagate new herbs by taking cuttings from your garden. You can easily multiply your herb garden through propagation which can save you a couple of dollars. Also, maintaining a small edible garden will cost lesser as compared to purchasing the same produce in a store.
