🌿 Shared gardens are sprouting up across China, capturing the hearts of young urban dwellers and becoming a hot topic on social media platforms.
One standout is UrFarms in Shanghai, which opened its gates last October. On sunny weekends, up to 100 families flock to this green oasis to cultivate their own patches of paradise.
At UrFarms, customers can rent a piece of land and select from a variety of vegetables to plant. While some enthusiasts enjoy taking care of their gardens themselves, the farm offers comprehensive gardening services for a fee, including planting, watering, weeding, and harvesting.
\"Most people rented a garden and asked for our help to look after the vegetables. They come once every two weeks,\" says Kluer Lin, founder of UrFarms.
But it's not just about gardening! UrFarms also offers activities like horse riding, tea drinking, and camping, making it a versatile spot for relaxation and community building.
With the rise of urban farming and sustainable living, shared gardens like UrFarms are not only providing fresh produce but also fostering a sense of community among Shanghai's youth. 🌍✨
