Folks
we're launching our new and fairly amazing website today,
Great Public Spaces, Great Community Places,
(http://www.greatpublicspaces.org), The site allows anyone
to praise or damn the places you live in and visit.
But where, I keep wondering, are all the incredible community gardens?
and the childrens gardens? It makes my heart weep to see so few of them
on the website. People could, I know, go to the ACGA website - but they
might not... they might not even think of community gardens as great public
spaces.
So please, do us a favor, go nominate a community garden, or add your
comments to the few gardens that have been nominated.
And don't forget to add a few scanned photos.
Make my day. Thanks Harriet
