Whose box is that one?  They should be proud!!
In a boat at sea one of the men began to bore a hole in the bottom of the boat. On being remonstrating with, he answered, "I am only boring under my own seat." "Yes," said his companions, "but when the sea rushes in we shall all be drowned with you."

Unfortunate.  Heard any scoop on any developments with the other garden?  I mean, other than what is in the post.

Looks like the title 'Folio Man of the Year' is the kiss of death.

I have some great pictures too...but cannot figure out how to post them here, perhaps someone more savy can pick them up from the forum...it is nice and truly a neighborhood venture with local residents and businesses chipping in.

Awesome stuff, sigma! Since the green in me doesn't extend to my thumb, I'm hoping some will sell surplus from their plots?

  A "Farmer's Market" right there in the alley behind the garden!  If only we could get some eggs from those free roaming chickens in the neighborhood...then we'd really have something.

It's a cool idea.
