Community Garden

Sometimes Howard County really suprises me.  In general I’m a little put off by their “choose civility” bumper stickers. However, when I found this plot of land and other one like it, they really made me think that the county did something right.  

This is a community garden, located on a piece of land next to the high tension wires, where you couldn’t build, but where there can’t be trees either.   Someone came up with the ingenious idea of turning that space into a community garden.  There are plots available for $40 a year with water and compost included.   It’s a pretty neat way to spend your lunch break, if you work nearby, or to keep up a garden when you live in an apartment.
