Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to explore the experiences and perceptions of women involved in food garden projects. This was evaluated against the Community Driven Development approach which is a development initiative to empower community groups by giving them control over resources and decision making in their efforts to improve their living conditions. The context in which the seventeen women who participated in the study live is one of poverty. Many women in the study mentioned lack of employment as their motivation for joining food gardens, which they saw as a way of escaping poverty and

Abstract:
Urban environments are typically host to a high level of biodiversity which is important for the provision of ecosystem services, and for facilitating contact between humans and nature. However, accelerating urbanisation precipitates considerable declines in the number of species which inhabit these environments as a greater number of homes and roads are constructed to accommodate a growing global human population. Domestic gardens afford an important opportunity to combat these declines, owing to their capacity to support a high level of biodiversity and the substantial land area which they c

Abstract:
From the late nineteenth century community gardens, or organised garden projects (OGPs), have been used by governments as mechanisms for providing economic and social relief during times of economic downturn. Since the 1960s increasing concern for the environment and social justice has seen networks of residents establish these gardens at grassroots levels. Following on from Stocker and Barnett (1998), the notion that these gardens can simultaneously create positive economic, ecological and social outcomes for garden participants and the wider community positions them as “agents of change” for
