Urban Gardening

Zombies approaching a garden with defensive plants in a strategy video game.

                          One of the best Flash games inspired by urban gardening.

One simple way of alleviating food shortage or rather minimizing your food expenses: Planting your own food. Of course this won't literally save you from a zombie apocalypse but this could surely save you some extra bucks.

This idea has the following benefits.

  • You are sure that there are no pesticides and other harmful chemicals in what you eat.
  • It will give you extra savings by lessening your expenses in terms of buying spices and veggies.
  • Happiness in watching the plants growing in your own yard.
  • You could help saving the world by recycling some waste materials. Like old car wheels exteriors could be used as plant pots and Styrofoam boxes.
