I've been getting involved in my community a lot lately and one of the first programs (community started and self run) that I learned about is called the Mesa Exchange.
It's such a neat idea that any neighborhood could do to help get to know each other and reduce waste, and eat fresh vegetables and herbs.
Neighborhood Exchange

I'll let you know how it goes when I visit ours - it will be empty handed as I don't have a garden (yet) but I can certainly help tend someone else's :-)

Cool Timmmy
I currently do a lot of container gardening.
We actually have an area all figured out, it's just the doing part :-) Or should I say the Consistently doing part.

I really like the sense of community of the Exchange.

That is a great idea!!! Every few months here we have something where you put out an item and someone can pick it up if they need it, etc.
