As a member of a Community Garden I feel an Uncommon Economic indicator is the enormous expansion of our members and the growing waiting list. The ability of people in an urban environment to grow their own food has taken on greater importance when people are finding it more difficult to make ends meet. Rather than going to eat out or buying expensive organic produce our members are taking the time to nurture a garden plot and grow their own produce.
