Kitchen gardening is a sustainable practice that deserves greater adoption in Pakistan. Cultivating fruits, vegetables, herbs and flowers in homes offers numerous advantages to individuals and societies. Not only does it provide households with fresh, organic produce, it contributes to environmental conservation by reducing the carbon footprint associated with food transportation and packaging. Further, kitchen gardening promotes food security, nutrition and economic empowerment. In a country where food contamination is a major concern, kitchen gardening offers a healthier alternative, as it relies wholely on natural fertilisers, and avoids harmful pesticides and chemicals.
