Planting fruits
Fruits are an important source of vitamins and minerals most of them are sweet or sugary and have a delicious aromatic flavor.
The advantage of fruits is that all of them can be eaten in their natural state (fresh and ripe) which ensures there’s no loss of vitamins and nutrients.
It also eliminates the process of cooking. Most fruits contain sugars which are highly digestible forms of carbohydrates and other and readily available forms of nutrients especially water, vitamins, and minerals.
It is recommended that we include a different type of fruit in our diet every day since the variety will ensure a supply of all the nutrients our body needs.
Fruits can be obtained from cultivated trees or from the wild both are nutritious, however so wild unknown fruits may be poisonous and only those which are well known should be eaten.
PRODUCING FRUITS
rees, from which most fruits are obtained, take a long time to grow and mature.
For this reason, it may not be possible to produce your own fruits in an urban area where one has temporarily rented a house.
However, even in such areas fruits like passion fruits, tomatoes(which are fruit vegetables), and strawberries can be produced inboxes.
In the rural areas where there is land ownership and permanency, every family should strive to plant as many fruit trees as possible such trees can be used for construction or firewood once they are old they can additionally provide shade, their flowers provide a source of food for bees and the trees themselves play a role in soil conservation.
