“Another opportunity is the Portland Yard Share program or the Growing Gardens organization. WithPortland Yard Share, the main function is to share your yard with neighbors, if you have plenty of room for a garden. This program is also helpful if you do have room for a garden, but have either neglected it or you just haven’t had the time to get it going. Their website allows you to post a listing to offer up your yard space, and you can find a garden space to help with. The main mission of this organization is to make it possible for the community to access healthy, local, and organic food. Many people in our communities would love to garden but don’t have the room, this is an almost instant solution! (www.yardsharing.org/where.html)”
