Weekends and long holidays are the best moments to start doing positive things. One of Indonesia's most popular hobbies gaining traction during the Covid-19 pandemic is gardening. However, why do people believe that gardening is the best hobby? Learn its benefits here!
About Gardening and Its Many Benefits
Gardening is a hobby that requires some physical activity because you must keep moving to plant seeds, scratch the ground, and water the plants.
No wonder this hobby is equivalent to running on a treadmill at 5 kilometers per hour. Not only is gardening beneficial for physical health, but it also maintains brain volume and reduces the risk of Alzheimer’s Disease by 50%.
Did you also know that gardening can do wonders for mental health? According to the Royal Horticultural Society’s survey of more than 6,000 participants, gardening can lower stress levels and increase overall well-being.
How Much Do You Need for The Hobby?
The funds needed to start gardening as a hobby highly depend on your financial capabilities and the size of available land. If you want to try this hobby in the comfort of your courtyard with some starting pots and soil, calculate how much money you need to buy the necessary containers, seed starting mix, soil, fertilizer, and seeds.
However, if you want to try the hydroponic agricultural method involving water pipes, you need around IDR 1 mio to IDR 1.5 mio. Which one do you like so far? Regardless of your preferences, don’t forget to buy the required starting equipment with cold cash!
Turn Your Hobby Into a Business
After gathering the necessary willpower, energy, and funds to start gardening as a hobby, you can try developing it as a business idea. What kind of business opportunities can you pursue with gardening, though? There are so many to choose from! Now that the economy is improving, you can try selling your fruit and vegetable harvest to fulfill the people’s needs for nutritious food or decorative potted plants for a more homely atmosphere.
One of the most notable self-made businesses that started from gardening is Ayo Nandur. Established in 2017, Ayo Nandur has improved with increasing seed demand and growing media. Another noteworthy example includes Neurafarm, developed by Dr. Tania to help farmers detect their crop health with AI.
