Neighborhood Gardening Co-op: Re: Welcome Back

In response to message posted by Kirk_Johnson:

Well although in principle it seems a very good idea (in a perfect world )I would put it a bit more strongly than Kirk, even in war time britain we grew our own veg, and the farmers horse would come and plow your yard (garden)and you would never be short of manure, even if you had to scrape it up off the village lanes? and you would be happy to lend a cup of sugar to your neighbour, but as for lending them your tools, that you could not do without (should a breakage occur, or they were not returned ? well that is another question altogether. Now in todays climate with the market trolley full to bursting with junk food, and the constant hazard of crossing the highways without running into a gas gusseling 4 by 4 monster, well perhaps one street in a million, as in britain the only thing that gets planted on the ground is empty big mac cartons and cigarette papers??
