"Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better",- Albert Einstein.The 6-word nature in not just simply pronounce as it is, behind those simple words, hides necessities that needed love,care, and protection. It is indeed right that nature is essential to mankind,From foods, herbals, and even shelter. Protecting and conserving nature is one of my advocacy in my early age. At this point, inclined with my advocacy is my family's not-so-big vegetable and fruit garden.
Lolo Jujie, My 72-year old Grandfather, the brother of my grandmther has been productive in conserving our vegetable and fruit garden. He started planting saluyot, and alukbati which became my grandmother's usual appetite. At this juncture, my grandfather decided to upgrade our vegetable and fruit garden. Until today, this became our hobby and in our community, they said that our family has a "green tumb" which means we are good in planting. Because of our vegetable and fruit garden, I have become fond of eating various kinds of vegetables. In fact, I like it more when the vegetables that I will eat are the those that came from our own vegetable garden. I am expecting that in the near future, our garden will be the role model in our society that even though we are in a urban city, we should keep in our mind that nature is everywhere and we will need it anytime in our life.
There are plenty of crops that our family planted. First is the Red Chilli, we use our this as our seasonings in every dish that we love to make it hot and spicy. Second is the cucumber tree, there are plenty of cucumber tree in our garden, we use these to add some sour taste in our sinigang dish every Sunday. Third, kamoteng kahoy which my grandfather always cook in our siesta time.There are also crops that are ready now to harvest I want to include patola, bitter guard, and string beans that we love to cook and use those crops to be part of our usual vegetable dishes. Aside to these vegetables that we love to plant, there are also fruit-bearing plants that we decided to be part of our garden. These are guyabano, banana, papaya, Mangoes, tamarind, and coconut tree. These fruits help us realize that are favorite deserts can also be found in our garden. Since I have the luxury of time again. Beside of those legible crops, I also have Herbal plants such as ginseng that is good at cleansing the internal parts of our body.
I decided to bring back my hobby that I have been forgot because of studies. I am starting to plant again with my grandfather. There are plenty of crops that I wanted to plant but I chose something that is near to my favorite dishes. Something that my grandmother likes and my mother will love if she will see my creation. I ask for help to my grandfather again and he suggested that I should plant something I really want so I decided to plant okra, which is my mother's favorite, papaya, my grandmother's favorite fruit, eggplant, I really love fried eggplant in fish sauce, and last is gabi.
When I started to plant again, memories keep flashing back and I just found out that this hobby is not a waste of time at all in fact it is worth of time. At this point of our lives, we forgot how nature is everything. We just know how to use nature in our own way but forgot how to protect as well as conserve it. Our garden will be a living legacy in our family, this symbolizes our unity, love of nature, and strategic approach on how to deal scarcity of food in our society. I am proud that there are oasis in the middle of skyscrapers.
