Hello All, Wade, i loved your quote so much i googled the whole thing to see if i could determine authorship. Here's what i came up with: Flowers grow in flower gardens Vegetables grow in vegetable gardens And people grow in community gardens. There is no attribution to this one, either, but it came from the website of the City Council of Aukland! Here is the website. http://www.aucklandcity.govt.nz/council/documents/gardenpolicy/introduction.asp Maybe it's one of those quotes that ring so true that they just come to have a life of their own.
