In creating a community garden, the first step is to find and get permission to use a section of land. This is crucial because without securing a space, you cannot proceed with planning or executing the garden project.
1. Finding a suitable piece of land is essential, whether it's a vacant lot, school/church-owned land, or property in the neighborhood.
2. Getting permission ensures that you have the legal right to use the space for your community garden.
3. Once you have a location secured, you can then move on to forming a team of people who share your vision and are willing to help in creating and maintaining the garden.
4. Preparing the soil and deciding on the type of garden (vegetables, flowers, or a combination) would come after securing the land and forming your team.
By following these steps in order, you can effectively kickstart the process of creating a successful and sustainable community garden.
