Still no NYC urban ag experiences on my work trip out east, but I did get a chance to visit one of Westport’s community gardens just north of NYC in Connecticut.
The pix are of the organic garden, which is tended to by families who reserve plots within the fenced area.
Gardeners pledge not to use pesticides on their spots.
My cousin tells me that this garden was so successful that the city has opened another garden near Westport’s high school.
More photos inside this Long Lots garden here at the Westport Community Gardens site.
