It also brings back having fun outside!
Anyone ready to increase food security and ecosystem health for today and future generations? Let’s create a community-based, socially just, environmentally sustainable, nutritious food system for all!
There is a direct connection between gut health, brain health, emotional health, and overall health, so improving access to fresh produce is extremely important in my opinion.
A 2011 study in the American Journal of Public Health found that not only did community gardeners consume more fruits and vegetables than either home gardeners or non-gardeners, but also that community gardens can improve neighborhood social capital, literally offering common ground to bridge across groups and generations.
When people begin to learn how to garden, this also creates an interest in preparing healthy food for a healthier life in the long run.
Editor's Note:
Climate and earth's warming and cooling cycles, which are mostly controlled by the Sun and weather patterns/chaos, which are influenced by numerous factors, are very complex topics. The terms Climate change and global warming are often used for environmental degradation caused by human activity, industrial pollution (e.g. Coal-fired power, mining, CSG, agriculture chemicals, factory farms), and geoengineering.
