Some wonderful information about Starting a Community Garden, to give an idea of thoughts others have had as to what a Community Garden is or what they would like it to be.

What is a Community Garden?
(Information from “Growing Communities Curriculum”)

A community garden is an area used for growing plants or animals, which has been collaboratively created and is maintained by members of the public. A community garden can take place on public or private land and can involve a broad cross-section of the public, as in a neighborhood community garden. Or it can involve specific sectors of the population, such as a school garden that involves students, teachers, parents, and other community members who support the garden for education.
