RE: looking for community gardens in Springfield, Missouri

H* A*

Cher Caraway Seed,

Very little of my hair and even fewer brain cells have survived with me from
the '60s -  but your name, Caraway, is a cheerful relict of what was for me
(and many other shambling wrecks) an interesting time. Something cheerful
left in my inbox for a dreary Monday morning.

Re Springfield:

Didn't find community gardens, but I did find these greening activities on
the Springfield, MO website. I'd make some calls to parks and to the
recycling folks - you might get some leads there. Here are a few greening
projects on the "Earthday" section of their website -

A list of of Missouri environmental groups:

Gateway Greening!  

One of the best community garden/neighborhood greening organizations in the
country is Gateway Greening in St. Louis, Missouri.

Their Whitmire study is probably the best financed and most intelligently
planned community gardening study:

Subject: [cg] looking for community gardens in Springfield, Missouri

Hello,
I emailed a few weeks ago asking about community gardens in Olympia, 
Washington, where I was planning to move.  However, my fiancee has a 
possible job opportunity in Springfield, Missouri and we may be moving there

instead.  If anyone has information about community gardens, organic farms, 
or any related projects near Springfield, I would really appreciate the 
information!

Sincerely,
Caraway Seed
