Shared gardens are blossoming in China, capturing the attention of social media users across the country.
One standout example is UrFarms, a shared garden that opened last October in Shanghai. On sunny weekends, the farm welcomes up to 100 families, providing them with the opportunity to cultivate their own vegetables.
Customers can rent a piece of land and select from a variety of vegetables to plant. While residents are responsible for planting, watering, weeding, and harvesting, UrFarms also offers these services for a fee, catering to those who prefer assistance.
\"Most people rented a garden and asked for our help to look after the vegetables. They come once every two weeks,\" said Kluer Lin, founder of UrFarms.
To enhance the community experience, UrFarms offers additional activities such as horse riding, tea drinking, and camping, attracting a diverse range of visitors.
