Are there models within the community gardening movement which are similar to the land trusts and easements?
A. Yes, and I think that land trusts are the most encouraging and successful tool that the community garden movement has to use. Burlington has a land trust that keeps land vacant for community gardens, as well as Philadelphia. Detroit and Pittsburgh also have policies for vacant land that loan land to residents in the form of a community garden or CSA garden. Q. What do you think about the SPIN movement?
