Jarnigar Chowdhury of Mohakhali DOHS has built a lovely rooftop farm of flowers, fruit and crops on her home. It enriches her personal life and has also helped her recover from physical illness.
Flowers and seasonal crops
Colourful flowers bloom across the whole roof, a delight to the eye. Alongside the flowers, seasonal fruits and crops are grown, and all of it gives her peace of mind.
Organic and shared
Getting organically grown vegetables is another reason she farms her roof. Besides eating the toxin-free produce herself, she loves giving it to relatives as gifts. She says rooftop farming gives her family both physical health and mental relief.
