Grow Your Own Food - Promoting Healthy Eating Through Home Food Gardening

Food and nutrition security is becoming a threat in Fiji due to impacts of

climate change and frequent natural disasters. Soaring food prices are

emerging, and are affecting our households especially the already

vulnerable and disadvantaged in our communities.

Fiji is making a stand to prepare for the ill-effects of climate change and

natural disasters and ensure that our families and communities are

resilient, and are food and nutrition secure.

The Grow your Own Food Booklet is intended to provide avid gardeners,

families and communities simple and practical ways on establishing

home food gardens, useful gardening techniques, and organic practic-

es. It details caring for your garden and growing fresh vegetables, fruits

and starchy staples for household consumption.

All you need to know about growing fresh crops is available on the Grow

your Own Food Booklet. Follow the simple tips and ways of keeping

garden crops healthy. The Booklet also provides a technique for

container gardening.
