Rooftop gardening
Rooftop gardening involves cultivating plants, flowers, or vegetables on the rooftops of buildings. It makes use of available space above ground level, often utilizing containers or raised beds. This practice can improve air quality, provide fresh produce, reduce urban heat, and offer aesthetic and recreational benefits. Proper planning ensures adequate sunlight, water drainage, and structural support for the plants and the building. It’s a sustainable way to utilize otherwise unused space, promote green environments, and connect city dwellers with nature, all while contributing to environmental and personal well-being.
