I just got the following email. Intriguing, eh? Does anybody out there know
of any such inclinations or examples?
Reply to me and I'll keep Nick in the loop...
Hello Mike McGrath--I live in a condo, and therefore, cannot have a garden.
However, I work for the Federal government, at the US Naval Observatory.
They have plenty of good land to garden on.
My question is this: Do you know of any government rules or initiatives
that encourage community gardening on Federal land? I'd be willing to start
a simple garden and donate 1/2 the crop to charity, and then keep the other
1/2 for myself or my fellow gardeners. The commander of the base is a very
by the book sort of person, and I could get them to go along with a garden
if there was a federal initiative encouraging gardening on federal lands.
Thanks very much for reading this email.
Nick Stamatakos
