A few links to community gardens in NOLA

These links I found while looking for green space connections in the city. The white boot brigade is a good example of local efforts towards food production and sustainability. The parkway-partners site has a list of community gardens that are up and running and has a link to an interesting video of the Holy Angels farmers market in the upper ninth ward.

New Project, New Partner

OK
As often happens, everything has changed. Below are links to a few sites to get us going looking at Urban Gardens, Urban Markets etc. as well as where there is food now. Also a link to info on bio-remediation, which will probably be a factor.
