Review from Chloë E.

Community gardens usually remind me I should have watered my plants last weekend and make me long to grow tomatoes, lettuce, and cucumber to make my own garden salad. This one does not.
That being said, that absence of garden inspiration comes from the community garden's rather new status. It's just a collection of plots at the moment, but I'm still excited to see what happens to it!
A good point too, it that this used to be the site of a gas station. A little petroleum with your potatoes? I'd be interested in learning more about this garden to find out how the public space came to be.
Is it the result of forbidden development because the land is so polluted? Is it really solely an initiative for the community to have garden space? There's a good post here with far more insightful details and great questions than I can get into: http://www.cityfarmer....
