RE:  Unfortunately the Denville gardens are for Denville residents only, But
 The Morris County Parks Commission at the Frelinghuysen Arobertum do have 10 
by  20ft. plots for $40 for the season!  I am absolutely delighted and am 
ringing today to secure mine. It opens on the 12th of April, and I just can't 
wait to start gardening!!

Dear Nicole,

While you are choosing your seeds, seedlings and tools, please feel free to 
go the American Community Gardening website at  <A 
HREF="http://www.communitygarden.org/";>American Community Gardening 
Association</A>  for information collected on community from all over the 
United States and Canada.  Both this website and listserve are services of 
the ACGA. 

While going through the ACGA website, please check out the membership page - 
for the price of takeout Chinese, a pizza and a few beers ($25) you can get 
discounts to our annual convention (this year in Chicago!) and recieve our 
annual Greening Review and our soon to be quarterly newsletters.

Best wishes,
Adam Honigman,

 Dear Adam,
 Thank you so much for the information. 
 Unfortunately the Denville gardens are for Denville residents only, But
 The Morris County Parks Commission at the Frelinghuysen Arobertum do have 10 
by 
 20ft. plots for $40 for the season!
 I am absolutely delighted and am ringing today to secure mine.
 It opens on the 12th of April, and I just can't wait to start gardening!!
 Thanks so much again!!
 All the best,
