Church Community Gardens

There is a tremendous outgrown of church related community gardens.  In a quick survey of Google using "church community gardens" there were more than 20 pages (with about tne per page) of examples from various states including Oklahoma, Kentucky, California, North Carolina, Michigin, Wyoming
Washington, Nebraska, Alabama, Texas, New York....Most were on church grounds but many were more "missional" locating their gardens in the neighborhood. Most were growing food but many included ornamentals (sitting gardens, meditation gardens, etc.).

To learn more about church related gardens, see the video here about Cedar Grove UMC in North Carolina:

    This is simply awesome! Please keep up the good work. I cannot say that I remember seeing such diversity in presetning a food bank or the opportunities to the community thereof. -DAC-
