Why not make community gardens in vacant lots to grow vegetables for those in need? The vacant lot on Pierrepont would be a perfect location for a community garden. The negativity needs to stop and more positive endeavors need to be enacted. Such a garden could also make use of the organic matter instead of stuffing it in a lot of plastic bags and dumping it in a landfill. By working the organic matter into the soil it will enrich the soil. If someone does not know how to make a vegetable garden, there are organizations that could step up and organize and plan gardens. The Kiwanis groups, Circle K and Key Club, would be good choices to organize and plan community gardens. As well as gaining additional community members to carry on the garden maintenance during the periods that Circle K and Key Club are not available. Community gardens will provide beneficial and positive results.
