Though we had a bit of trouble with the "community" part of our neighborhood community garden (a valuable learning experience of its own), the garden did produce well. Some things, like peppers, squash, and tomatoes even survived the extreme heat of summer with no supplemental waterings (an issue with "community" caused this) and began producing again once we had some cooler days and much needed rainfall. Our family moved at the end of September, but the garden was still growing well at that point. Our group gave away over 100 bags of organically grown produce to those in our neighborhood, and had plenty of veggies for ourselves. I didn't save as many seeds as I'd hoped; though I did save a few heirloom tomato, cantaloupe, and gourd seeds. All-in-all, it was a good learning experience; and something my family will definitely do in the future. We are currently looking for a suitable place to plant a community garden in our new home.<br />Thanks for the challenge!<br />Blessings,<br />Catherine,
