Community Gardens:

A community garden is a shared plot of land that a group of people decide to collaboratively work on together. They grow fruits, vegetables, flowers, and various other plants. It is meant to foster a spirit of community by bringing people outside of their daily activities to appreciate the company of their neighbors and the beauty of nature. There are various types of community gardens such as residential, neighborhood, institutional, and demonstration gardens. Community and residential gardens are based in the communities where they are located. Institutional gardens exist attached to the organizations that run them. Demonstration gardens are used to present and educate.
