Creation of 'Community Garden Mini Exhibition Hall' in Gwangjang-dong, Gwangjin-gu

Creating a Rural Landscape and Herb Garden in Gwangjang-dong's Small Plot Garden Provides Simple Attractions

[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Gwangjin-gu (Mayor Kim Seon-gap) has created a 'Small Garden Exhibition' using various flowerpots, props, and benches in the vacant space within the Gwangjang-dong leftover garden (Gwangjang-dong 582-3).

This exhibition was prepared to provide small attractions by displaying various garden models that residents can make themselves, aiming to foster a sense of familiarity with urban agriculture.

The exhibition space is about 35㎡, with 60 flowerpots planted with rice occupying 80% of the area to create a rural landscape, and the remaining space filled with various types of gardens decorated with herbs and flowers.

A bench is installed in one corner of the exhibition space, which can also be used as a photo zone where residents can take a break or take pictures.

In particular, this exhibition conveys the meaning that anyone can create a garden at home by themselves, as the district employees directly planned the exhibition, purchased materials, and installed the garden.

Along with this, the district will conduct a survey from August 1 to 15 to reflect residents' opinions on urban garden projects such as leftover gardens and box gardens.

Anyone interested in urban gardens in Gwangjin-gu can participate in the survey by filling out the questionnaire available on the district office website or at the leftover garden in Gwangjang-dong and submitting it.

Among the residents who participate in the survey, 30 people will be selected by lottery to receive a garden set that can be grown on a veranda, and the survey results will be actively reflected in the future operation of urban gardens.

Mayor Kim Seon-gap said, "I hope this exhibition will be an opportunity for residents to take an interest in urban agriculture, which is accessible in various ways," and added, "I also hope many people will participate in the survey event where they can present various opinions on urban agriculture and receive gifts."
