Community gardens have been becoming more and more popular around the county in recent years. They offer a relatively inexpensive way for many Americans to have fresh produce in their homes without the burden of maintaining a garden by themselves. They give novices a chance to learn how to garden, while also feeding their families in tough economic times. The community garden we visited was located directly behind the Macon Methodist Church on College Street.
Many community gardens, like the one in Macon, us raised beds to grow crops. This is done to prevent harmful toxins from entering the produce.
