What are our roles, rights and responsibilities to maintain sustainable food sources.
- Planting fruits and vegetables in your garden.
- Maintain a healthy lifestyle.
- Look after your garden.
- Make sure you water it every day but make sure you don't water it too much or it will die.
- Make sure that here is not too much for the plant or it will not get the sunlight that it needs.
- If you have pets or rats that like to eat the things in your garden you must be careful or you can build a little cage for the plants.
