Residents of Vinh City are enthusiastically planting vegetables along the sidewalks.
(Baonghean.vn) - Faced with the current widespread problem of contaminated vegetables, many people in Vinh City have taken advantage of vacant plots of land along sidewalks or used styrofoam containers to grow clean vegetables for their daily meals.

| Locals are taking advantage of the newly planted tree stumps along Nguyen Sach Street and the North Canal to grow organic green beans. |
 |
| Tomatoes are grown around the base of trees along the North Canal. |
 |
| Ms. Nguyen Thi Kieu, from Hamlet 16, Nghi Phu, dedicates the small plot of land in front of her house to growing organic cabbage. |

| And they made a trellis for the beans to climb on the sidewalk (photo taken along Nguyen Binh Khiem street, Hung Dung ward). |
 |
| In the area surrounding Cua Nam fish pond, many households utilize vacant plots of land to grow various kinds of green vegetables. Due to the proximity to the pond and the high moisture content of the soil, the vegetables here thrive. |
 |
| The use of styrofoam containers for growing vegetables is very common in Vinh City. These containers are placed on balconies, in front of houses, etc. Mrs. Luong Kim Hanh's family in Cua Nam ward grows about 30 different types of green vegetables in styrofoam containers. |
 |
| This vegetable garden has been cultivated by the family of Ms. Ong Thi Bich Mui, residing in the Nguyen Sy Sach apartment building (Hung Dung district), for nearly 10 years. Initially, the family only grew a few types of herbs in 5-7 styrofoam boxes. Now, the number of boxes has increased to over 20. Because the styrofoam boxes easily deteriorate after a period of use, Ms. Mui decided to switch to plastic boxes and even invested in a metal frame to hold the plant boxes, maximizing space utilization.
