PGLU for Container Gardening, Ensures Food Security

During the 96th Regular session of the Sangguniang Panlalawigan, the members approved SP Ordinance no. 292-2021, requiring all Punong Barangays of the province to include container gardening among their urban agriculture programs enjoining all households in their area of responsibility for food sustainability.
Board Member Geraldine R. Ortega President of Liga ng mga Barangay- La Union Chapter and author of the ordinance said that while the impacts of CoViD-19 are still felt, the Province of La Union is now faced with the challenge on how to make nutritious food available and accessible to every household’s table to avoid hunger and food insufficiency.
According to BM Ortega, the major travel restrictions and community lockdown had caused the closures of many businesses and loss of employment, livelihood and reduction of income, thus reducing food availability and leaving the poor at risk of hunger and malnutrition. β€œThrough the practice of urban gardening, you have direct choice over what you grow and eat, and you’ll be able to provide yourself with a stable and healthy food supply,” she added.
Another objective of the ordinance is to convince the people to contribute in improving the supply of organically produced crops in the province and help generate additional income.
Container gardening also helped beautify and keep the surroundings clean with the use of recycled containers instead of dumping the same in the garbage sites.
