Hi JW,

I'm still at the rehab so can't meet in person but would be happy to help
with the project.  I can help to create a custom google map of the
gardens.  For the ward information, I would recommend waiting until the new
ward map is finalized.  And we don't need the garden leaders to provide
that information, we can use the garden address and populate that field for
all the gardens based on the new ward map. In addition to garden name, and
garden address,other fields to collect might be land ownership, type of
garden, community garden model ( allotment, communal, etc. ), water source,
garden leader, website/facebook, a free text field where garden leaders can
provide any additional information they would like to share.

Thanks.
May
