Home gardening has a long history that started when humans became sedentary, being traditionally considered an accessible source of food and medicinal plants to treat common illnesses. With trends towards urbanization and industrialization, particularly in the post-World War II period, the importance of home gardens as important spaces for growing food and medicinal plants reduced and they began to be increasingly seen as decorative and leisure spaces. However, the growing awareness of the negative impacts of agricultural intensification and urbanization for human health, food quality, ecosystem resilience, and biodiversity conservation motivated the emergence of new approaches concerning home gardens. Societies began to question the potential of nearby green infrastructures to human wellbeing, food provisioning, and the conservation of traditional varieties, as well as providers of important services, such as ecological corridors for wild species and carbon sinks. In this context. and to foster adaptive and resilient social-ecological systems, our supported viewpoint intends to be more than an exhaustive set of perceptions, but a reflection of ideas about the important contribution of home gardens to sustainable development. We envision these humble spaces strengthening social and ecological components, by providing a set of diversified and intermingled goods and services for an increasingly urban population.
家庭园艺有着悠久的历史，可以追溯到人类开始定居的时候。传统上，家庭园艺被认为是获取食物和药用植物的一种便捷途径，可用于治疗常见疾病。随着城市化和工业化的发展，尤其是在二战后，家庭园艺作为种植食物和药用植物的重要空间的重要性降低，它们开始逐渐被视为装饰性和休闲性空间。然而，人们越来越意识到农业集约化和城市化对人类健康、食物质量、生态系统恢复力和生物多样性保护的负面影响，这促使人们开始关注家庭园艺的新方法。社会开始质疑附近绿色基础设施对人类健康、食物供应以及传统品种保护的潜力，以及为野生动物生态走廊和碳汇等重要服务提供的潜力。在这种情况下，为了促进适应性和有弹性的社会-生态系统，我们支持的观点不仅仅是对一系列观点的全面阐述，而是对家庭园艺对可持续发展的重要贡献的思考。我们设想这些不起眼的空间通过提供一系列多样化和交织的商品和服务，为日益城市化的人口加强社会和生态组成部分。
