[Community_garden] the list as a class tool

Hi there, Tina here from the Rocky Mountain state of Colorado.
 
    I apologize if this is a repeat, I may have missed  a few comments.  
 
I hope your plan or garden design includes an area for a children's  garden.  
Where they plant, weed, water and generally tend all they choose  to grow.  
If possible have a particular person in charge, teach a few  simple classes, 
and oversee their progress to ensure positive results. Be  sure to include some 
companion plants to demonstrate "community"!  
 
Why? These kids will be the future of community  gardens.  Start 'em young, 
get them on the right track, gardening will  stick with them more than any 
other 'class' they take through out their school  lives!  
 

I realize this is only one and you asked for three, I'll just repeat the  
above two more times!

>From a life long gardener who wouldn't trade those early years for any  other 
education!
