Turn every lawn into a community garden?

Hello! A wee group of us are running an experiment to see if there’s any curiosity for this idea. It’s called Alot, and it pairs people who love to garden with people who have land but are too busy to garden it.

If you like growing things but lack space, or if you dream of a garden but don’t have the time, Alot matches gardeners with people who have space to grow, in the same neighbourhood.

You both get fresh flowers and seasonal vegetables, help the bees, take care of the soil, and meet passionate growers in your area. All the ingredients we need for our community to support each other through climate change.

If you’re interested, sign up here: https://alot.vercel.app/. Alot sends out matches every week. Our aim is to get 10 sign ups by the end of the month!

I'm not on Facebook or any other socials, but if you're in Ōtepoti and fancy helping me out by posting on any local (trusted) community pages, that would be awesome.

@SimonCHulse @simplicitarian @zeborah see if you can boost it now - I did a whole new post via phone app…
