The Talking FarmRuth encountered this group in Illinois.  Their mission sounds inspiring;

Inspiring Community Garden

Sunday, February 21st, 2010 | Author: toffee

This is a short (9 min) documentary that chronicles the regular practices and annual plant sale of a community garden in Austin, TX.  It is inspiring and heart-warming.  And we have contacted the Sunshine Community Garden and asked for a better quality version of the film so we could show it to those interested in The Oviedo Farm.  They have graciously offered to send us a copy on DVD and wished us good luck in our endeavors!
