| Quantcast | AlexaA garden is more than just a means of providing food, it is a model of what is possible in a community. Everyone could have a some kind of a garden and grow healthy, nutritious organic food - thereby promoting a more sustainable way of living, encouraging a local economy via a farmers market creating an arena to discuss gardening experiences, sell their extra produce, and share the bounty. Since most of the nation's food is produced by less than 2% of the population, everyone could be part of the solution. We nurture ourselves as we nurture our gardens, renewing our connection with the earth and her beauty, thereby reducing stress on the world's finite resources, and strengthening our community as a whole in the process. Without community we can be overwhelmed by forces that seem outside our control - we can pool our enthusiasm, our resources, our knowledge, and, together, we can grow.
