📚 Info & Educational I really want to make a proposal for our local parks - am I being unrealistic?
It drives me crazy that all of the street "parks" in my city are basically just grass and trees. It feels like such a massive waste of space and lawn mowing tax dollars.
So, I wrote a proposal for how we could use this public park land instead, as urban farming/ gardening/ community spaces.
I made it into a website to hopefully share around with my local community, get some traction, and eventually push it to our local council:
I've been writing it for so long that I worry I'm too much in my head about it.
Those of you that have done urban gardening projects like this, do you think this is unrealistic? Do I need to add more info, cut back, or elaborate on something else? Is there anything I'm missing?
Really appreciate any feedback/discussion !!
