I decided to give a point to shine for people who don't have a garden and don't know these advantages apart from the obvious ones.

1. Being in contact with the earth. Whether you grow land or plant it in a pot, touching the earth puts you in touch with nature and your sons and daughters will have fun as well as learning.

2. Your sons and daughters will learn to try new things. Watching fruits and vegetables grow will encourage your children to try new things and enjoy food.

3. You can spend time with your family. Sharing activities with your children is essential to create trustworthy environments, to teach and to have good communication.

4. You will promote local agriculture. One of the most important problems in agriculture is pollution caused by the transport of products (fruits, vegetables, etc.).

5. With an urban garden you will avoid transport and take care of the natural environment.

6. You will teach new things to your sons and daughters. Many children are unaware of what certain fruits and vegetables look like and have never seen how they grow.

7. A vegetable garden can be an important learning tool to know what the tomato plant looks like or how zucchini or strawberries grow, for example.
Your sons and daughters will learn to take responsibility. An urban garden requires different care and your sons and daughters will have to take responsibility for taking care of everything that is grown, so little by little they will understand the importance of being responsible in various areas of life.

8. You will get fresh fruits and vegetables. A vegetable garden at home will allow you to get seasonal fruits and vegetables that are totally fresh and natural. In addition, you can use natural means instead of pesticides to protect plants.

9. You will avoid stress. Cultivating the soil and observing the growth cycle of plants is a way to relax and avoid the stress of everyday life.
You'll save money. A vegetable garden at home will help you save on the shopping cart and get healthier products to take care of the family's diet.

10. the use of plastics. Most fruit and vegetables are wrapped in single-use plastics that pollute nature. Sin embargo, con el huerto urbano evitarás the use of plastics contaminantes.
