Conflict

In a health town every family can grow vegetables for itself. the time is past to think of this as a hobby for enthusiasts; it is a fundamental part of human life.

Resolution

Set aside one piece of land either in the private garden or on common land as a vegetable garden. About one-tenth of an acre is needed for each family of four. make sure the vegetable garden is in a sunny place and central to all the households it serves. Fence it in and build a small storage shed for gardening tools beside it.
