Caption
Research led by Princeton's Anu Ramaswami, the Sanjay Swani '87 Professor of India Studies, professor of civil and environmental engineering and the Princeton Environmental Institute (PEI), and research specialist Graham Ambrose is the first to quantify the emotional well-being (happiness) that people experience while gardening at home. Their results -- published in the journal Landscape and Urban Planning -- suggest that household gardens could be key to providing food security in urban areas and making cities more sustainable and livable. This infographic breaks down the key findings of the study.
