A seven-hectare land in Quezon City will be converted into a farming site to promote the importance of urban farming and help nearby residents get source of income through growing their own produce.
The local government on Friday said it has partnered with the Department of Agrarian Reform (DAR) and the Department of Agriculture (DA) to develop a land in Barangay Bagong Silangan for the “Buhay sa Gulay (Life in Vegetables)” project.
“We are happy to finally launch our Buhay sa Gulay. Aside from providing 70 residents in New Greenland an alternative source of income, we also ensure that they find enjoyment in managing and producing products from their own farm,” Mayor Joy Belmonte said.
