Jindo-gun Achieves Significant Budget Savings with Directly Managed Nursery Establishment

Jindo-gun, Jeollanam-do is constructing and operating a flower nursery spanning approximately 1,000 pyeong in the Hyangdong-ri area of Gogeun-myeon.

According to the county on the 18th, since January, spring flowers grown in the nursery have been planted in idle lands within the jurisdiction, and they plan to continue planting them throughout the county to herald a bright and warm beginning of spring.

The flower nursery, consisting of two three-span vinyl greenhouses and one management building, currently produces about 200,000 cuttings and herbaceous plants including hibiscus, hydrangea, marigold, and marguerite.

In addition, about 300,000 summer herbaceous plants such as cosmos and cockscomb are being planted, and autumn herbaceous plants are also being prepared.

The county is focusing on maintaining the planted herbaceous plants and plans to additionally select idle lands and areas with poor scenery to create flower paths and flower hills where seasonal feelings can be experienced.

A representative from the Jindo-gun Forestry and Recreation Division said, “We will reduce the budget needed for purchasing herbaceous plants every year and contribute to alleviating local employment difficulties by newly hiring nursery management personnel.”

Meanwhile, Jindo-gun actively promoted the “365 Flowers Blooming Jindo” project and received an excellence award last year in the ‘Carbon Neutral Tree Planting Evaluation.’
