Re: Re: Community Gardens and all those other considerations

John Bruce gave a very knowing, understanding, practical  reply to  this 
subject.  Judges do have their own garden - or should have, to be a judge -- also 
they are busy with  life-affairs, and sometimes distances are  a challenge.  
As for a Community Garden - he also knows  the problems.  Our Chapter had one 
some years back and it was  well placed for the most part, but again there were 
few people who had the time, energy, etc to take care of it.  It lasted an 
amazing number of years, until the "helpers"  dwindled down due to age added to 
the other problems!  It  seems like a good idea in theory, but practically, it 
is better to try to visit gardens established and cared for by the owners.  
Unless a large public garden is possible with paid workers and maybe iris 
people  checking on the iris section workers.  Rosalie nr Baltimore USA   zone 7
