00:44.0
Pero kailan na siya nagsimulan yung maging seryoso na?
00:46.9
Anong nangyari noon, yung first harvest ka namin, pinamigay namin.
00:51.8
Saan yung pinamigay?
00:52.5
Sa bakatsyang bahay, security guards, kapitbahay.
00:56.2
So, first harvest.
00:57.5
And they were willing to pay for the produce.
01:00.8
So, sabi namin, ituloy-tuloy na natin.
01:02.7
Kasi also, I needed to give sweldo to the farmers, the employees who are running it.
01:10.3
Sa dami ng tumangkilig sa kanilang mga ani, nagdagdag sila ng sakahan.
01:18.5
So, 1,500 square meter lot na ito sa BGC.
01:22.9
Dito, pwedeng ma-harvest ang kanilang mga tanim.
01:26.1
Gaya ng lettuce, arugula.
01:27.5
Basil, tomatoes, at marami pang iba.
01:31.3
Ang sistema, pick and base sa halagang 200 pesos.
01:35.5
Pasok kayo dito, kung ano yung ready to harvest ng mga gulay,
01:40.3
tabagan lang yung isa sa mga farmers, they will help you also harvest it.
01:44.3
Uwiin nyo yung gulay, bayaran nyo, uwiin nyo.
01:47.0
Mayroon kaming isang supot doon, I think it's about 200 pesos.
01:50.7
Kung ano yung kakasya doon sa supot, yun na yun.
01:52.4
Yun na yun, tapos 200 na yun.
01:57.5
Kailangan ko ng pangsalad.
01:59.1
Kaya, time to pick and pay.
02:08.9
Isa sa napansin ko dito, karamihan sa kanilang magsasaka, pawang mga kabataan.
02:15.7
The median age of a farmer right now is 55 years old.
02:19.2
A lot of young people are not interested in agriculture.
02:23.4
They always think, madumi yan.
02:25.9
Hawawa yung mga farmers.
02:27.5
Walang kita dyan.
02:29.2
That's the reason why we need farms like this.
02:32.2
And for the young people to appreciate where their food is coming from.
02:38.5
At ang kaalaman na yan, binabahagi nila sa lahat sa kanilang mga lingguhang workshop.
02:45.0
Mayroon ng limang urban farms na inaalagaan ng Urban Farmers PH sa iba't ibang sulok ng Metro Manila.
02:51.1
Ang bawat kita ng urban farm na pupunta sa pagpapatayo ng edible gardens sa public schools,
02:56.9
local communities at private companies.
02:59.9
Bakit mahalaga na mayroon mga ganitong classic urban farms?
03:04.3
We always have to pay for our work.
03:05.9
Lately learn and also appreciate the work of the farmers.
03:10.3
Talagang napakagiting ng ating mga farmers because without them, we won't have any food to eat.
03:16.7
Ayon sa kasabihan, kapag may itinanim, may aanihin.
03:20.3
Pero sa adhikain ng Urban Farmers PH,
03:23.6
ang tunay na masaganang ani ay ang bagong pagpapahalik.
03:26.9
Mahalaga sa pinagbumulan ng ating mga pagkain.
03:31.9
Live po natin makakasama ang farmers na sina Randy at Francesco na Urban Farmers PH.
03:37.6
Good morning sa inyo.
03:39.8
Nandiyan na sila.
03:41.7
Ito yung kailangan. Kailangan talagang may farmer yung mga pangalan nila.
03:45.2
Si Farmer Francesco at si Farmer Randy.
03:47.8
Pagpapahalaga sa mga magsasaka.
03:49.3
Ako kinisort off by saying na nakikita po namin sa studio ngayon yung daladala nila.
03:54.4
Ang ganda ng setup, mami.
03:55.8
Pwede, pwede. Hindi lang sa tahanan na bungalow or yung mga single detached houses.
04:01.7
Pati kondo, pwede ito.
04:04.0
Urban na urban talaga.
04:05.6
In fact, I really like yung first opening ninyo na we really have to introduce the concept of eating more vegetables.
04:14.6
Eating more vegetables.
04:15.9
Kasi the WHO recommends that we eat at least 400 grams of fruits and vegetables per day.
04:21.7
And Filipinos only eat mga 150.
04:25.8
Si mami, kaya niyang ubusin lahat yan.
04:28.2
So on average, on average yun ah.
04:30.3
Pero ayun, by doing this at home, di ba, we can expose people to, especially yung mga kids, di ba.
04:36.2
Di ba, there are kids that go to the farm.
04:38.2
Minsan, ano, I ask them na parang during our workshops, we ask them, parang, oh, do you eat any vegetables?
04:44.2
Sabi nyo, oh, sige, yes.
04:45.5
Oh, what vegetables do you eat?
04:46.5
Oh, french fries.
04:49.0
Pero kasi, di ba, parang, ay, mag-harvest na tayo.
04:51.6
So habang nag-harvest, mami, ang tanong ko lang, kasi you mentioned kids.
04:55.8
I have two boys, no.
04:57.4
Pagka ganyan ba, kahit wala kong green thumb, kaya ko to.
05:01.5
There's no such thing.
05:02.5
We don't say that, you know, there's no such thing as a green thumb or a black thumb, di ba.
05:06.0
You can learn how to do this.
05:07.4
Ah, may black thumb akong friend.
05:08.7
So I don't know the process.
05:10.6
So merong tamang way ng pag, meron kasi silang pick and pay activities dun sa kanilang farms, ano, sa halagang 200 pesos, katulad yung sabi natin kanina.
05:18.3
Pero ano ba yung tamang proseso ng pagkuhan ng lettuce?
05:20.9
Sample, sir, ito.
05:22.1
Feeling kami ha, siyempre, magpaparing tayo.
05:24.6
Kukunin lang natin buhon niya, sir.
05:25.8
Uy, gagayahin natin.
05:27.9
At lupa talaga ito, ha.
05:30.9
So as you can see yung ano, we have our own soil mix in the farm.
05:34.0
We mix our own soil in the farm.
05:36.0
Tapos talaga, ayan, this is an indicator of healthy roots din.
05:39.0
Because it's white.
05:41.6
May tatlong composition po yan.
05:43.0
We have vermicast, coco peat, and CRH.
05:45.6
Kaya healthy po yung ano natin.
05:47.5
Okay, so pagka-hubot natin, ikakat natin, sir, dun.
05:53.1
Kahit anong gunting pala pwede.
05:54.4
Kahit anong gunting pala pwede.
05:55.8
Pag gusto ko malaman, from ganyan, pag hinugasan ba, ang tanong,
05:59.7
o kunwari, kasi sa mga kapatid natin hindi pa marunong sa bulay,
06:03.0
sinasabon or water lang?
06:04.9
I actually recommend na, you know, since this is,
06:08.1
we don't use mga chemical fertilizers or pesticides.
06:12.8
You can do it with running water.
06:14.3
Pero ako personally, I use a basin.
06:16.5
Nalagin ko siya ng half a teaspoon of baking soda.
06:20.0
Tapos I let it sit there for 10 minutes.
06:23.8
That should be good.
06:24.4
Because ang baking soda,
06:25.8
takes away, whatever, ano pa pala.
06:28.1
This one is Sunny Rose Lettuce.
06:28.8
Parang may saponifying effect po kasi siya.
06:31.2
So, saponification.
06:32.3
Parang sabon din siya.
06:33.0
Parang sinabon mo, pero hindi sabon.
06:34.6
Kasi baka maglasang sabon.
06:36.4
Hindi siya maglasang sabon.
06:37.8
Now, you have mixed lettuce already.
06:40.0
Ito, sabi mo, Randy.
06:40.8
We have a romaine lettuce,
06:42.8
sunny rose lettuce,
06:43.8
and a black rose lettuce.
06:44.8
Mixed green salad.
06:45.7
Mixed all together.
06:48.4
Pag sa grocery nyo ito binili, magkano?
06:50.6
Ay, siguro mga 600.
06:52.0
Pero pupunuin yan, ha?
06:54.1
At yung sisiksikin ninyo na kumagaling tayo dyan.
06:57.5
Tsaka yung thrill na ikaw ang maghaharvest
06:59.3
sa lilimong kulay.
06:59.9
And, ano, the proceeds, diba?
07:01.7
So, the proceeds of that, diba?
07:03.2
Since we're an NGO, diba?
07:04.9
Those all two operations lang.
07:06.6
And keeping the lights on, you know,
07:08.3
keeping the walkway running,
07:09.6
paying the farmers,
07:11.0
and pati yung ano,
07:12.0
even the housing is provided.
07:13.6
So, ito, imbitahan nyo na yung,
07:15.3
aga, Mami Chiquita.
07:16.0
May flowers kasi.
07:18.2
Pero ano to, binibilan nyo for,
07:21.6
For the seeds from plant na already.
07:25.8
Uy, for the ball!
07:28.9
Para sa mga kapatid natin
