I am in a fight to save a community garden from developers. It has existed for nearly 100 years--honest--run by a school. Then it was a victory garden. I am thinking that there must be a strategy that has worked for others. Please advise. It strikes me that public sentiment is important. Is the local councilman the first contact. Agricultural extension agents? . How about local garden clubs? The newspaper? Parks Commission? Who are our best advocates? This is a political issue--not a logical one. People understand the value of green space. Any quick ideas of how we proceed? A mtg. is scheduled for tomorrow night. Thanks for any ideas. Sincerley, Pam Hoffmann, gardener [EMAIL PROTECTED]
