Abstract
This project was completed as part of the 2013-2014 Resilient Communities Project (rcp.umn.edu) partnership with the City of North St. Paul. Hoping to increase community involvement and encourage healthy eating, the City of North St. Paul was interested in developing community gardening opportunities. To facilitate this, project lead Jon Fure partnered with students in PA 5242: Environmental Planning, Policy, and Decision Making, taught by Dr. Carissa Schively Slotterback, to create a guide of community gardening best practices. The students developed best practices for preparation and selection of a community garden, management practices for a community garden, and logistics of the garden and produce. The final report, presentation, and poster are available.
