Post #4827024

Hi there,

I just got semi-involved in a new community garden that is in Brownes Addition, at a local church. The church is donating the space and the sprinkler system (I believe this is what the pastor said).

The pastor there and I have been in contact and he could use all the advice he could get, as far as organizing this. One part of the garden will go directly to a food bank, and the other side will go to those involved in the garden.

What we are wondering is how to organize this so that it works out fairly to those involved. Should it be rows to certain people? Should different people do different veggies, but all share? We don't really know how this works and would like it to go smoothly so that it is enjoyed by everyone.

Any tips or advice? Oh - he would also like to know what kind of sprinkler system would be best. Soakers? Sprays? Spokane is normally hot and dry in the summer and early fall.
