Home Farm: Flowers, Fruits and Vegetables

Live in the city and still enjoy fresh home farm flowers, fruits and vegetables

A Home Farm is essentially your patch of garden at home which you use to grow flowers, fruits, vegetable and plants. It could be the patch in front or at the back of your house, a tiny balcony, a penthouse or rooftop garden, or an allotment near your home - anywhere you can plant something.

By using this FREE app, you can live in the city and still enjoy home farm flowers, fruits, vegetables and plants that are fresh, healthy and mostly grown organically by your neighbours. The pressure of living in the city usually makes us just grab our food from supermarket shelves. We often don't think of where our food is grown and how far they have to travel to get to our plates. In the long run, it may not be sustainable.

Home Farm flowers, fruits, vegetables and plants are grown practically at your doorsteps. So the cost of transportation and its environmental impact is minimal. Usually a home farmer will compost their organic kitchen waste which would otherwise end up in landfills.

The Home Farm app is intended to enable and encourage urban dwellers to grow, sell, buy or exchange flowers, plants, fruits and vegetables at home or on community allotments. Ideally, these will be grown organically, that is, using organic fertilisers, especially home-produced composts, and without the use of toxic pesticides and herbicides.
