[Communications] Thinking of joining

[Amy Olson]

Hello Graham,

What area of the city are you interested in finding a garden?
Not all community gardens have waiting lists and gardens have various ways of organizing.

As Lorraine wrote below, we don’t know the status of every garden, but we can connect you with gardens we are aware of if you provide a specific neighborhood.
Then you can follow up with contacting and visiting them.

Kind regards,
Amy

on behalf of CCGA communications
