When you grow your own food you know it's nutrition because you did not use fertilizer and pesticides which is bad because of chemicals used to it. When you grow your own vegetable and fruits you know you use organic fertilizer which is good to your body because it was grown by your hands. When you grow your own vegetable you make a lot of savings because you don't need to go to market because you have your fresh and newly harvested leaves. The photo is my own grow pechay in my garden.

Great work there! Can I have some please? Hopefully, I'd manage to get my vegetable garden going in the next year. Been planning to do that but just haven't found the time yet.

@ilocosboy first time I've heard about non-hot chili eggplant. Care to share a photo?

We have not even a piece of land to live, i mean we have no land of our own to live, we live in rented house and here we have not enough space n permission to grow anything.

Maybe you are living in urban city. It's really hard to find lot to grow plants when you are in the city. But you can use pots.

That's beautiful! My dad's wife grows her own tomatoes, squash, and cucumbers. She was growing ears of corn, but a crow keeps coming by and munching on all of the corn. Rabbits have made the squash growth questionable as well.

That is the common problem with us. even in here our problems are the chickens that destroys the vegetable garden. It's hard the gardens from them.

Yes, it is good to grow our own food. It's hard work but we can if we want to.
