As the world population continues to grow, the demand for food is also increasing. However, food production and distribution have not kept pace with the growing population, which is part of the elites agenda, more on that in another article. This has led to several problems, including food insecurity, malnutrition, and environmental degradation. To address these issues, there is a need for a paradigm shift in the way we produce and consume food. One of the best ways to do this is by teaching children to grow their own food.

Benefits of Teaching Children to Grow Their Own Food

Teaching children to grow their own food offers several benefits, including improved health and nutrition, physical activity, environmental sustainability, and a sense of responsibility.

1. Improves Health and Nutrition

When children learn to grow their own food, they are more likely to eat fresh fruits and vegetables. This can lead to improved health and nutrition as these foods are rich in essential vitamins, minerals, and fiber. Moreover, growing their own food can help children develop healthy eating habits that can last a lifetime.

In contrast, many children in urban areas lack access to fresh fruits and vegetables, which can lead to poor health outcomes. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), only 9% of high school students in the United States consume the recommended daily amount of fruits and vegetables. This can contribute to several health problems, including obesity, diabetes, and heart disease.
