Winner of the Palava World City’s Urban Farming Show Exhibit

Q: As a follow up to the workshops on Urban Farming conducted at Palava World City, the budding gardeners voted for the best plants from the Group. Ajay Choudhary of Regalia, Casa Bella, Palava City won the best gardener award for his homegrown vegetables ladies fingers and chilies. He won an advanced organic farming workshop course with leading organic farming group ‘Green Souls’.

Ajay has this to say about how the workshops not only helped his family grow plants but also bond better: “I feel delighted after winning. My children and I have nurtured and grown these plants together and winning a prize has boosted our interest in this topic. Nowadays most families tend to stay at home and watch television or play games and don’t go out & enjoy outdoors as we used to when we were kids. Initiatives like the Palava Urban Farming Club is a great way to explore new things to do and it also a great way to connect and socialize with the community. We really appreciate the initiative.

Hi,
There are some major benefit of urban farming is that it can add greenery to cities, reducing harmful runoff, increasing shading, and countering the unpleasant heat island effect. Garden plots can help people reconnect with the Earth, and gain a greater appreciation for where our food comes from

@Sree,
Even the numerous studies have shown that urban agriculture can contribute to social, health, economic, and ecological benefits. However, very little of that works focuses specifically on develops measures that can demonstrate benefits at a neighborhood as well as a citywide scale.
