Freedom Gardens – grow your own!
I just came across this site, and what actually drew me in was the 1950s communist style illustration of happy workers headed off with their hoes and rakes, with a backdrop of a suburban neighborhood. Something about the illustration and the propaganda-esque name (”Freedom Gardens”) put me off a little to start with. But maybe I’m just overly critical…
As I surfed around the website I came to love it. Here’s what they say about themselves: “Freedom Gardens is an online social community of gardening enthusiasts who are fed up with foreign oil, frequent food miles and high food prices.” Who wouldn’t love that? An online community for people who like locally-grown, super fresh yumness straight out of their backyards. They have a little disclaimer – not all the buttons on the site are operational yet as they’re a new site and still working on the details. But go ahead and check out the forum – you may even find something special to bring to the Thanksgiving table!
