 Gardening > Vegetable Gardens
Find in this ring all manner of sites, personal, academic and commercial devoted to the topic of vegetable gardening , privately and (particularly) in allotments, which are UK and European community gardens dedicated to growing vegetables. They exist, too, in North American and perhaps all over the world, although they may be called something else. The sites in this ring cover all aspects of veggie- growing, including but not limited to caring for organic produce, and compost-making. Pictured on this page: a photo, by Hege Øygaren, of a family happily working in an allotment garden in Oslo, Norway. On the NavBar: a tomato vine, in a detail from a photo, taken October 28, 2006, by Joe Mabel, of the Picardo Farm, Wedgwood, Seattle, WA, that city's first P-Patch community garden.
