SEMARANG - Hundreds of students of SMP Negeri 30 Semarang immediately boisterously welcomed the arrival of Central Java Governor Ganjar Pranowo, Thursday, March 16. They are looking forward to Ganjar's arrival to harvest with Bunga Telang.

Taking the time to stop by during rides, the arrival of the number one person in Central Java has been eagerly awaited by the students. Ganjar also greeted one by one and visited the food booth which was made by the students themselves.

We see the creativity of children and teachers, where children are taught good experiences. One experience of planting and maintaining. So they process (plants)," said Ganjar.

At the urban farming exhibition, Ganjar had a dialogue with a number of students of SMP Negeri 30 Semarang. A number of food products are neatly arranged and look delicious. Then, Ganjar Pranowo visited the auction plant garden which was planted and treated by students in the school yard.

"So this theme is a eagle flower, it can continue to be used as a drink. It can even be used as skincare. This means that children are given the tradition of farming, maintaining, including farming fish power," explained Ganjar.

The two-term Central Java governor said that the urban farming activities by these students can foster students' creativity and concern for plant cultivation, especially Telang plants.

"Later on, they will continue to be stimulated, knowing the products we can have from agriculture and food. Who knows they will be great researchers to be able to develop it," he said.

Ganjar Pranowo supports the implementation of similar activities in other schools, with a wider hope that students as the next generation of the nation can continue their food sovereignty well.

"Our food is getting bigger, our food is getting more sovereign and that is from these children as the next generation. This is food power that is introduced from an early age and put to school so that they learn by doing," said Ganjar Pranowo.
