Thanks to transportation, you can enjoy watermelon or strawberries any time of the year. But many people prefer to eat local food from community gardens or local farms.

What about cities? There isn’t much space to have farms. One way to grow food in a city is on a roof! In this roof garden, a class of children grew 453 kg (1,000 pounds) of vegetables in one year.
