A vacant lot is a food forest waiting for paperwork.
If you're part of a community garden — or want to start one — this is the thread. Useful angles:
• How did you get land access (city program, church lot, land trust, guerrilla)?
• How is the work and harvest shared?
• What killed momentum, and what kept people showing up?
The American Community Gardening Association has good organizing resources: https://www.communitygarden.org
Even if you just have a story about the garden down the street, tell it. These projects spread by example.
