GARDENING FOR HEALTHY LIVING

       

This year's Nutrition Month theme "Ugaliing Magtanim, Sapat na Nutrisyon Aanihin" highlighted the idea of Family Food Gardening which also aims  to improve food and nutrition security by increasing access to a diversified source of food for families and communities alike, as well as improved incomes through sales from home-grown produce.

We are annually celebrating the Nutrition month every July to encourage and increase the awareness  of people to live in a healthy manner. The theme engages us to produce foods at home through the family's own garden. Having a garden can improve our wellness and it can also help us by selling some of our crops for additional income. The theme enlightens everyone of us to practice the habit of planting. We can harvest a lot of crops through planting and this can be our first move to lessen the issue of malnutrition. 

Proper diet, regular exercise, proper hygiene and having a self-discipline can help us toward a healthy body. Backyard gardening is one of the best way to live our life to the fullest!! Having some healthy fun with our family is even better! 

Together with our family we should start living in a healthy way to have a healthy life!!
