After seeing the community garden here in Macon I realized how much of an importance it is for communities to have these gardens. Not only does it promote fresh produce but it also promotes unity within the community. This community garden improves the quality of life for people in the garden, provides a catalyst for neighborhood and community development, stimulates social interaction, encourages self-reliance, beautifies neighborhoods, and reduces family food budgets, conserves resources, creates opportunity for recreation, exercise, therapy, and education.
