"Community Gardens are Community Centers" - The theme for our annual conference in 2000
Anyone have some creative theme suggestions for our conference in 2002? This year was "Sprouting Unity in Our Community"
We are starting to plan for the conference that will take place on March 16, 2002.

Subject: [cg] community garden definition
The working definition we have come up with here in Boston (and posted on my
wall) is:
Community Gardens are green spaces that are communally cultivated and cared
for; these spaces may consist of individual plots, multiple caretaker areas,
sitting areas, and small-scale children's play areas (stand-alone tot lots
are not considered community gardens.)
