This program is part of the urban agriculture expansion project promoted by the Yangju City Agricultural Technology Center, and is designed to enable citizens to easily learn about companion plant care and horticultural knowledge close to their daily lives.


The Companion Plant Consultation Service will be held a total of 12 times, and any Yangju citizen can participate free of charge.


The service includes guidance on companion plant care, pest and disease control, and repotting, with one-on-one personalized consultations provided by professional urban agriculture managers and horticulture experts.


In particular, the repotting service, which many citizens find challenging, will also be provided. Each person can receive free consultation for up to two pots, with the size of each pot limited to less than 25 cm in width and 50 cm in length.


In addition, on October 20, 25, and 27, a companion plant horticulture education program will be held, allowing participants to create their own companion plants using pots and materials under the guidance of experts and learn plant care methods.


The program is limited to 20 participants per session on a first-come, first-served basis, and applications can be submitted via the QR code in the notices section of the Yangju City Agricultural Technology Center website.


An official from the Yangju City Agricultural Technology Center stated, "Companion plants are not simply indoor decorations, but healing resources that help citizens achieve psychological stability and emotional recovery. We hope that through this consultation service, citizens will become closer to plants and that green culture will spread throughout the city."



Detailed schedules can be found on the Yangju City Agricultural Technology Center website and the official Kakao channel.
