The various ways my pumpkin leaf farm brings benefits and advantages to me.

Good day, homesteaders! It's always a pleasure to be here, and today I'm excited to take you around my mini farm that has been of help in sustaining my family and me during this ongoing inflation that has hit our country after the removal of the fuel subsidy. It's a delight to know that my farm products come back to help me reduce costs during this hard time.

Today I'm showing you my pumpkin leaf farm that's is very essential in we Africa meal and medication, the leaf is one that as enormous benefits and I can remember my grandmother use to squeeze it water out and mix with milk to be drank by us to help improve our blood level, although we don't really know if it actually improve or add to one's blood. But it's obvious that we're usually much healthier after taking the drink.

Pumpkin leaf is known as ugu leaf here in Nigeria, and it's a common vegetable eaten by almost every single tribe in the country. Having it on my farm alongside other products reduces the need to purchase vegetables again in the market since I can easily go to the farm to cut the portion I need and get the meal ready.

Aside from being used for medicine and being said to be rich in vitamin D, the pumpkin leaf is used as a meal in Nigeria, and it can be cooked as vegetable soup that's then used to eat meals like pounded yam, Eba, semolina, and several others. Right under the pumpkin leaf stem, I also have a Gure leaf growing under it. The gure leaf is another vegetable we consume here in Nigeria, and it can also be used for soup for the meal I highlighted earlier. It's known as water leaf in English and isn't really planted but usually germinates in fartile lands where its branches are thrown on.

Thanks for your time, stay bless.
