We must let nature do things, respect it. The goal is not to use pesticides and chemical fertilizers. With time and regular maintenance you will have tasty fruits and vegetables, but also very respectful of the environment. Having a vegetable garden at home makes it possible not to buy, for example tomatoes coming from the other side of the world and thus to avoid an unnecessary pollution.

It is an improvement of the living environment of those who have one, but is also a way of meeting and sharing between neighbours for example. Thanks to your vegetable garden you participate in preserving green spaces and biodiversity (bees, butterflies...).
