Tom, 

1) The ACGA website publications page is a good place to start as any:  <A 
HREF="http://www.communitygarden.org/pubs/index.html";>ACGA Publications</A> , 

2) The ACGA community garden treatises page is also a good vein to mine: <A 
HREF="http://www.communitygarden.org/links/index.html#Studies";>ACGA CG Studies
</A>

3) If Gwenne Hayes Stewart of Gateway Greening has not already contacted you, 
<A HREF="http://stlouis.missouri.org/gatewaygreening/index.html";>Gateway 
Greening</A> , the very exciting and quite frankly seminal study done by the 
Whitmire researchers would be extremely important for Urban Planners to see -  <A

WhitmireStudy.html</A> 

Please read this material and please get back to this listserv with your 
questions. 

Best wishes,

 Dear ACGA folks:

 I am looking for information and/or published research that supports the use
 of community gardening as a tool for effective urban planning.  Specific
 topics might include community revitalization, property values, crime
 prevention, etc.  Any info tying the planning and greening would be greatly
 appreciated.  Thanks.

 Tom
