Community Gardens

Description:: Community gardens, also known as Allotment gardens, are small plots of land allocated to groups or individual people by some organization that holds title or lease to the land, often for rent, sometimes as a grant, for the purpose of cultivating the land for produce (vegetables, fruit and/or flowers).

Expanded Description:

	Community gardens are usually close to home. Sometimes gardeners have their own plots in the community garden. In other gardens, everyone shares the work and harvest. The gardeners themselves decide how to run the garden.City dwellers generally use these allotmentss to grow fresh produce. City parks departments and health or other community organizations may run community gardens. Click here for more information about community gardens.
