Urban Gardening as a trend and social movement

Urban Gardening experiences a renaissance in cities in both Germany and globally and is becoming increasingly important for urban development and community formation. According to Lebensundfreiheit.de) It is an answer to the shortage of acreage and the increasing demand for locally produced foods. Urban gardens not only act as places of self -sufficiency, but also as symbols for sustainability and community.

in Berlin and other cities, urban gardening initiatives promote intercultural encounters and at the same time improve air quality. Innovative concepts such as Urban Farming and Vertical Farming have significantly influenced space use and the city climate. Community gardens that often arise in apartment blocks or high -rise buildings offer tenants the opportunity to create gardens together in courtyards or on fallow areas.

The variety of urban agriculture

At Urban Gardening, various plant species, such as tomatoes, peppers and herbs, can also be cultivated on balconies or small areas. Even harvested foods are inexpensive, but also pesticide -free. In public space, approval of the green space office must often be obtained in order to avoid legal challenges.

The income from community gardens belonged to those involved and promoted social cohesion within the neighborhood. Working and learning about sustainable gardening not only strengthens the identity of the community, but also established a new culture in dealing with urban space and resources.

Overall, the exhibition "Productive Region" impressively shows how important urban gardening is for the creation of the creation of life -worthy urban environments and what role social responsibility can experience. Robert Bischinger from the Alice Salomon University emphasizes that dealing with these topics is crucial for the future of cities.

The connection of new knowledge transfer and artistic view in the exhibition could be an invitation to all citizens to actively participate in urban agriculture and thus make a valuable contribution to social and ecological sustainability.
