Subject: Re: Community Garden Proposal

Dear Parks and Recreation Committee,

Thank you for reaching out regarding the proposed community garden project. I completely agree with establishing a shared gardening space in Riverside Park and would like to share my perspective on this matter.

I strongly support this initiative because it would promote healthy eating habits while bringing neighbors together. In my experience, community gardens create lasting friendships among participants. For example, when my previous neighborhood in Calgary implemented a comparable program, we saw significant improvements in both participation rates and overall satisfaction among residents.

Furthermore, I believe this proposal addresses a genuine need in our community. Many families in our area live in condominiums without adequate outdoor space for gardening. This would not only benefit current residents but also make our neighborhood more attractive to families considering relocating here.

Best regards,

Sarah Mitchell
