What is a Community Garden?
It can be urban, suburban, or rural. It can grow flowers, vegetables, or a sense of community. It can be one community plot or it can be many individual plots. It can be at a school, near a hospital, or in a neighborhood. It can also be a series of plots dedicated to urban agriculture where the produce is grown for a market.
