The urban garden movement is steadily growing, with land trusts all across the country working with their communities to create places for gathering, growing and celebrating their community. Rural, suburban and urban land trusts ranging from all-volunteer to staffed groups, are making an impact. Some own and manage the land; others host the gardens and the community runs the garden project.

• Neighborhood managed and run community gardens
• Five food gardens protected by the land trust, as well as six additional community spaces, such as sitting parks and forest patch
