Abstract - Homestead gardening is a traditional method of gardening that helps the poor and rural communities survive. Traditional forestry has given way to homestead forestry in the last 30-40 years. Homestead gardening refers to farming or gardening in your own backyard. Homestead gardening can be done by growing crops and vegetables in the space around the house. Homestead gardening assisted rural poor people in growing vegetables that would provide them with the nutrition they required. It engaged rural women and improved their food and nutrition as well as that of their families. Participation in an HFG programme, according to our findings, reduced food shortages among rural households by up to 41.5%. More rural households must be encouraged to participate in the programme by policymakers. Domestic gardening programmes that give women a voice and sell their full participation in home life can make a significant contribution to community development.
