Planting Garden Platoons

25 people in a neighbourhood, could really Impact the area for good' if ten Committed gardeners keen; could, gave advice to Others, say a minimum of fifteen? All within A half-mile square. Gardens on a minimum Also fifty feet square! To plant some fruit trees And beds of veg? Rows of corn beside the Shed to allow a beekeeper, for pollination It would feed that group; could inspire a Nation? On large village greens, would what be sown? I can See possibilities Almost endless on the growing I say a healthy initiative what say You? Could it be aided? Would the government help too? That might mend Some fences? and cause cohesion With some in politics who aren’t just like a Damaging lesion.' ©Joe Maverick 28-7-2023

Hello Susan, as always it would take drive, and determination my idea is On areas from 50ft sq so up On that some in the locale nay Have an acre or two? It should Be possible for 25 people on aggregate to make it work.? 2/3 doing the smaller areas and bigger grouos on the half Or acre size plots spare food Could go to care homes or hospices ? It would take just One working cell to find out.' If its viable Thank you for commenting!
