Community Garden

I'm lucky to have a garden plot in a community garden. About 30 gardeners grow fruits, vegetables and flowers for themselves and in a 'giving garden'. It's great to see various gardener personalities echoed in their plots and different types of plants that produce such an abundance of food and beauty. From my little area (not so little, 400 sq ft), I get to harvest and share fresh veggies and flowers all summer and fall. About a third of the photos in this collection are from my plot.

Franklin gardens are located in Tacoma, WA at Franklin Park.
