Use artistic designs and harmonious lace with the natural environment in your crops
The Garden Garden is a tool for the human development of consciousness through contact with the elements.
It may seem like a ridiculous idea, while you watch your backyard or small garden. But it's not a crazy idea. Some edible plants can be grown in small spaces, and you will also begin to be aware of the agricultural world.
Many people want to have a nice garden, but perhaps they are also considering the enjoyment of having some fruits, vegetables or vegetables available for them.
In addition they will be much more nutritious and more tasty than those that can be bought in any supermarket.
Ecological organic or biological agriculture continues to advance more and more and is being developed based on six main pillars:
-The protection of the environment and the need to re-produce healthy food without causing irreversible damage to ecosystems or people's health.
-The food sovereignty that the farmers have, since organic farming is feasible at small and medium scale allowing to be a sustainable self-employment option in disadvantaged areas.
-The preservation of autochthonous vegetable varieties and natural landscape.
-Oligopolies of large multinationals that restrict the fundamental rights of producers and consumers are avoided.
-Organic farming favors access to healthy food to disadvantaged populations with limited resources.
-Innovation, study and technological development
Tips to maintain your ecological planting
Choose autochthonous plants. They are more resistant to lack of water, to poor soils, to pests and diseases and require less maintenance.
The cactus and other succulents are very hard.
Group the species in the garden according to their water needs. That is to say, that the autochthonous and xerófitas species are together (it would be a dry zone) or together those that need regular irrigation (humid zone), of this form water is not wasted when over watering some plants that do not need it.
At the edges of the lawn, which is where more water falls, take advantage to plant those that consume more water.
The automatic irrigation with programmer will allow you to water at night and thus avoid the strong evaporation of the day produced by sun and wind.
It is advisable to accustom the plants to little irrigation.
Place streetlights and photovoltaic beacons that are powered by solar energy.
The excess of fertilizers causes a very tender sprouting and creates plants more prone to pests such as aphids or mites.
Make homemade compost by recycling the plant remains, such as pruning branches, mowed grass, leaves, food scraps, etc.
The padding or mulching consists of covering the floor of the foot of the plants with different materials, as a layer of 5 to 15 cm thick. Its benefits are several: it protects moisture from evaporation, leaves fewer herbs and provides nutrients for plants (organic mulches).
Currently, there is a great awareness of the importance of taking care of the environment when healthy foods are produced and more and more people not only choose to buy organic, organic or bio foods but also actively involved during the production process through, for example, the participatory guarantee systems, or also through the Consumer Groups that they manage.
