p.e.a.c.h. Community Gardens
We are assembling a land bank of parcels of land that could be available for growing food when we have people trained and ready to take up the task. Some of these parcels will be big enough to operate a farm on while others mght be as small as a front yard on a city street. These smaller parcels could be turned into more community gardens where neighbors get together to grow small personal plots. The most successful community gardens are ones that have a reliable, consistent manager to keep up with the tasks of keeping the garden going. What p.e.a.c.h. has in mind is providing management for some of these smaller land bank parcels that will become community gardens. At this time, there are no p.e.a.c.h. Community Gardens. Maybe you could start one!
