Along with buying organic, there is a sustainable community movement going on. The theory is that everyone can have a garden and contribute. There are a couple of community gardens here. One of them even has their own farmers market. We also have a problem with the farmers markets being more like craft fairs. But the community foodbank sponsors 2 really good farmers markets and they have a workshop on how to garden. The garden coordinator will even come out to your garden and help you get started.
