Bringing together individuals, organizations and

          resources to foster community action

LCRC launches new Community Garden program

            C'mon London -- let's get growing!

Adopt a Plot -- For Goodness Sake

The London Community Resource Centre acknowledges and appreciates the continued support of the City of London in our Community Gardens Program.

Each year the London Community Resource

Centre's Community Gardens program rents out

garden plots  to a wide array of individuals in the

community.  There are, on occasion, instances

where plots in the  garden site across the city are

unused or  abandoned.  To eliminate the existence

of vacant plots throughout the gardening season,

the LCRC is looking to create a

list of community groups, organizations, businesses and corporations who would be interested in

assuming the care of these unused plots in order to grow fresh produce, which in turn cold be donated

to emergency food providers in the City of London or the London Food Bank. We are asking if your

community group, organization, businesses and corporations would be interested.

In addition to aiding the community through this much needed program, your participation would be

promoted in a variety of methods: on a separate, highly visible section on the LCRC website; in the

promotion of and during the LCRC annual picnic; inclusion in annual reports and; in future community

garden communication materials both public and among existing community gardeners.

Along with our flagship Community Gardens Program, the LCRC also works in collaboration on several

other programs, and through our vision there is a strong and undeniable connection with them

all, in relation to issues of food security.

If your community group, organization, business or corporation is interested in more information, or

wants to get on the Adopt a Plot -- For Goodness Sake list, please contact the London Community

Resource Centre at 519-432-1801, or e-mail: lcrc@lcrc.on.ca
