Hmm.

This is just a random thought, but the more I think about community gardening, the more I wonder about place and space - both extremely important discussions within geography, specifically within cities. Are gardens spaces made into places vis a vis community interactions? Or are they originally places, distinct and unique, overlooked at as mere "spaces" within a city, occupying a vacant lot, filling a void. How does community, when added into the dynamic, create and transform the interpretation of a garden into space and place? Is the dichotomy just as unique as private and/or public? And more honestly, is that dichotomy justified: does place take precedent over space, or vice versa? Is a community garden a place? Or a space? Or both?
