Your role is very important, let's do what it can to maintain and preserve the environment around us.


The idea is simple. Her dream in every village there is a location of household pilot how organic gardening is done. Mothers housewives in each village in the village, grouped together to grow organic vegetables on a plot of land-pilot center. They work together to create patches of planting locations divided into groups. With the guidance of an organic gardening expert, this group of mothers works each day, in the morning or in the afternoon. They met, chatted, joked, watered plants, fertilized and cleared land from weeds.


                                                        

                                                        

                                                        

                                                        

                                                        


Without feeling, they watched the vegetables they planted to grow green. They are happy not only because they can harvest vegetables regularly for their household needs, but they can also meet their fellow mothers while sharing various storytelling. Apparently, this activity is more fun.


                                                         

                                                         

                                                         


After some time they were gardening together, each member tried to grow vegetables independently in his yard. Each household at least tried to grow vegetables on twenty sacks filled with soil and fertilizer in the yard of his house. Inside the sack is planted a variety of plants needed kitchen: chili, eggplant, mustard, tomato, and other plants.


                                                         


This is perhaps, the community food endurance model that we must build in many places in Indonesia? Who knows in the future, the government can provide communal land (a kind of crooked village) in each village, in each village, specifically dedicated to the community as a center of joint activity, a pilot center for vegetable and fruit cultivation of household needs, or center of home nutrition empowerment stairs. If this can be realized, food security and nutrition of rural households. Hope it works.
