Community gardens provide opportunities to learn about the democratic process and leadership.
Choose a well-organized garden coordinator. Decide whether there are conditions for membership, such as neighborhood residency, or dues. Decide how often the gardeners will meet.

Harvest festivals are wonderful events in which to include all members of the garden and the community.
