I stopped by the garden on May 20th to get my tomatoes in and I found a couple of other people there. Yawo, originally from Togo, now a French teacher in Minneapolis was digging away at his plot with a pickaxe and shovel. He inspired me to start taking pictures of people in their plots as part of this project. He's using the "French method" of intensive gardening, that is, he's building up raised plots for planting.
The second person I saw was Gino who came with his gardening partner to plant another row of seeds. His plot is near Yawo's but he's following a more traditional model, at least around here, of using string to demarcate the row, digging a trench and plopping the seeds down.submitted by Mark
