Community Garden

Community garden is a place where a group of people can cultivate a piece of land that is designated as the garden area.  Within the piece of land, there are many different plots that are assigned to individuals or a smaller group of people to take care of.  People get their own designated spot to do with however one pleases.  A community garden can be just about anywhere and can have flowers or vegetables.  Community gardens have shown up around schools, hospitals, and even neighborhoods.  This community garden may be for one's own use to consume or sell as one pleases.
