Debrecen – A season opener was held in the Old Garden Community Garden. The plots waiting to be cultivated were handed over to the gardeners by the representative of the district, Deputy Mayor Lajos Barcsa.
The first community garden in Debrecen has been green since 2020 in the park of Miklós Sinai Street, with an area of one hundred and thirty square meters. There are twenty-eight plots in fourteen beds.

This year, twelve new families have joined the sixteen members so far. They have an area of four and a half square meters for the cultivation of crops and herbs and ornamental plants for organic farming. As this green community initiative has proved its worth, there will be a continuation in the city as well.
– We would like to create one such community garden in two other areas, the New Garden and the Tócóskert. On the one hand, we ensure that people have access to healthy food in their own hands, and on the other hand, they also build community, said Deputy Mayor Lajos Barcsa at the opening of the season.
