Community Gardening and its Socio-economic Significance to Society
Food insecurity is a serious issue that has raised concern in the community, and its unfavorable impacts call for urgent intervention. Some of the common adverse effects linked to food scarcity include higher risks of specific birth abnormalities, anemia, reduced nutrient intake, and mental complications such as stress. Along with the ongoing efforts to manage food insecurity, creating a community garden program emerges as a revolutionary approach to addressing this issue- and promoting a nourished, sustainable community. This essay will look into the social, nutritional, and economic rewards of incorporating community gardens, focusing on how they can reduce food poverty and enhance general society's well-being.
Society is experiencing a killer crisis, food insecurity– which affects the productivity of many community members. Borrowing from the study of Malberg Dyg et al. (2020), the essay explores the socio-economic implications of food insecurity. The authors champion sustainable solutions and emphasize how community gardens can offer easily accessible and nutrient-balanced food options, fostering a more robust and healthier community. This publication strongly focuses on sustainability, including water conservation techniques and applying organic gardening. In addition to providing practical techniques for improving food accessibility, this study highlights cases of malnutrition. It
