Community Garden Information Systems: Analyzing and Strengthening Community-Based Resource Sharing Networks
Loria, Kristen
Journal of Extension, v51 n2 Article 2FEA6 Apr 2013
Extension professionals play an increasingly central role in supporting community garden and other community-based agriculture projects. With growing interest in community gardens as tools to improve community health and vitality, the best strategies for supporting these projects should be explored. Due to the importance of inter-personal networks in providing informational, material, and human resources for community garden projects, the analytical tool of information system analysis is potentially useful for Extension efforts in this field. The evaluation reported here can be used to inform Extension and other community-based programming to articulate and strengthen such community garden networks.
