Garden Statistics
Loving Garland Green is focused on seeing that we have at least 5,000 urban farmers in our city by the end of 2016. We plan to create and maintain a database of these gardens and their output.  We also hope to design our information gathering methods so as to capture correlations between the rise of urban gardens and improved local economy.
