When Sumith Bandara and Nisansala Lakmali decided to start home gardening, they had visions of lump vegetables, juicy fruits and aromatic herbs nestled in a lush garden. On an abandoned plot of land adjacent to their home, the couple started the project with only a little bit space and a sprinkling of knowledge, but their visions took seed. Making their dream a reality, though, was not that simple.

A heartfelt thanks to all participants of the Soil Biodiversity contest.

In the framework of the Global Symposium on Soil Biodiversity (GSOBI21), FAO, and its Global Soil Partnership (GSP) launched a photo and video contest on soil biodiversity. 

Unfortunately, due to the world pandemic, GSOBI21 has been postponed to 19 - 22 April 2021. In light of the Symposium, the soil biodiversity photo and video contest helped push the soil biodiversity agenda further to the public.
