Rawalpindi: The Rawalpindi Authority (RDA) recently made the decision to initiate a kitchen gardening project that is expected to be executed with the help of the city’s residents, according to news sources.
The department is providing free seedlings and flowering pots to the citizens in a bid to popularize the habit of growing one’s own vegetables. The local population will also get pamphlets that are designed to guide them through the basic processes involved in setting-up a kitchen garden.
Chairman RDA Tariq Mehmood Murtaza stated that starting a kitchen garden is a useful pursuit that will help people grow fresh vegetables at their homes. Not only will this ensure convenience for the citizens of the city, these vegetables will also be cheaper and healthier than store-bought produce.
The RDA has been planning this campaign for some time, and will be launching it across the city very soon. All the necessary tools and materials required by the citizens will be provided by RDA employees, who will distribute these instruments by going door-to-door. In order to incentivize the campaign, a competition will also be held for the best kitchen garden, and prizes and certificates will be awarded to the winners.
