One Garden , Whole Community


What you think of when you hear garden

Maybe a hippie 50 year old guy with of a shovel and hair down to his waist

Most likely right, but I want to change all of that 

I want to make people think of feeding a community

Changing a community's life

How would a garden do this

Well ask a couple children " where do vegetables come from"

If any of them say "the supermarket" then you'll understand

Most people don't know how to garden

Plus they don't know how gardening can change one's life

Its humbling, therapeutic, and joyful

Gardening can be as creative,and as fun as you make it

Therefore if I could change one thing in the world 

I would let everyone know that

One garden can better a whole community

All I need is one chance
