Community Gardens


Years ago, when I graduated from college and got married, we moved to the Chicago area. Being an airforce brat I had never gardened before meeting Terry, but once I started I couldnt stop.



Living in an apartment left me gardenless but I lucked out and heard about a community garden.

That small plot I had produced enough produce for the neighborhood, tho apartment dwellers in Chicago were not very friendly. In fact, they always looked at me strangely when I offered them tomatoes and squash!
Now I would know to offer the surplus to the community food bank!
