You may want to talk to the Garden Mosaic folks. As many are still on academic break you may want to contact them later in the month.
Here's the general address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Garden Mosaics Fernow Hall 16 Cornell University Ithaca, NY 14853 Here's the website ( which seems to be, in large part, "coming soon", i.e. in construction): http://www.dnr.cornell.edu/gardenmosaics/ A good place for you to get more information on community garden research and mongraphs published in the field is the ACGA website: http://www.communitygarden.org The ACGA's publications: http://www.communitygarden.org/pubs/index.html And the ACGA links page: http://www.communitygarden.org/links/index.html Specifically, Section III. Community Gardening and Greening Studies http://www.communitygarden.org/links/index.html#Studies Also, you need to visit the world famous Canadian Urban Farmer Website, http://www.cityfarmer.org/. However, if you want to be taken seriously as a "community garden scholar" you need to get a "Union Card" to be taken seriously ( and for Karmic Reasons that are too complex to get into now.) You also get free publications produced by experts in the field. You need to become, as soon as possible, for $25 buck (a pizza, beer and a movie date in a College town :=)).

I'm very interested in community gardens as I see them as an ideal intersection of these two fields, as well as an ideal solution to many problems in urban areas, and I am hoping to go to graduate school to get a degree in probably Sociology. Doing this would give me a broader understanding of what it is that community gardens need to accomplish and how they can do so. Does anyone know of a program or faculty person in Soc, or even in Hort, that studies community gardens? I welcome any feedback or thoughts on my proposed plan of study as well, as I am still trying to etch out just what it is that I want my plan to be.
