Are you familiar of the word 'Quarantanim? It is not found in the
dictionary, but it is seeming to be viral all over the internet. Quarantanim
is from the words quarantine and tanim, meaning planting during
quarantine. Today, most families do 'quarantanim'at home. This is being
of ways to become productive during the Enhanced Community
Quarantine.
Aling Joana and her husband do 'quarantanim'. Instead of waste their time
during the lockdown they planted vegetables in their backyard. Their
children namely John and Johna help them in planting and watering their
plants. They put organic fertilizer to assure that their plants grow healthy.
After two months of lockdown, their vegetable plants grew well and bore
fruits. They shared their harvests to their neighbors, relatives and friends.
They sold some of it. With this, they earned money and had free vegetables
for their meals.
This is a manifestation of positivity during this time of pandemic,
members of the family help one another to survive.
