Pat, You should try for the Henry County tour. I think Glenda and the folks at Community Gardens of Henry County http://henrygardens.com/ would be of great interest to you. There is a combination of some limited county funding, with multiple community garden projects that are either un-funded, land use only, or currently under negotiation.
Also, look for anyone from Park Pride Atlanta, especially Walt Ray who is hosting the Thursday evening event. He could speak volumes. See you soon, -fgc -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Munts, Pat Sent: Tuesday, July 20, 2010 5:39 PM To: '[email protected]' Subject: [Community_garden] Meet at conference I am coming to my first conference in Atlanta. I would like to meet up with folks who are developing community garden systems with moral support from city governments but no $ because of budgets. I would like to learn how you organized, interact with government, gain funding and build gardens all at the same time. I will be staying at the main hotel arriving on Thursday Pat Munts Small Farms and Acreage Coordinator WSU Spokane County Extension 222 N.
