community gardens

Community gardens are universally recognized as community assets, though it's sometimes difficult to agree on the definition of a community garden. (See below.) At one time Phillips had over thirty of these gardens, but as the cost of housing soared during the late 1990's and the early part of the present decade, their number dropped. At present, there are only a half dozen or so in Phillips, but these surviving gardens seem securely placed in their home neighborhoods. They are a wonder to visit.

 

Much more information on Phillips' community gardens (including a very serviceable working definition) can be had at Greenspace Partners
