BALANGA CITY—This city will continue the promotion of organic food consumption to promote good health among its constituents.
“Under the leadership of first term tandem Mayor Francis Garcia and Vice Mayor Vianca Venzon-Gozon the program Go Organic, Go Sustansya will continue and be strengthened,” said Elias Almelor, city employee and president of the Federated Parent-Teacher Association.
City agriculture employees last week taught grade school students organic planting, making organic fertilizer, and other organic agriculture processes.
“The earlier it is, the better it is for students to learn organic farming and the health benefits of eating organic foods,” said Almelor.
Young students in the 25 villages of the city will be oriented in organic production and consumption. The city has been conducting the activity for three years now.
Former city mayor and now Bataan 2nd district Rep. Joet Garcia hatched the Go Organic, Go Sustansya program.
