Infrastructure at HotAtlanta Community Gardens

The American Community Gardening Association held its annual conference in Atlanta at the beginning of August. Below are some photos from the City of Atlanta Southeast Bike Tour showing some of the multifunctional infrastructure at the community gardens in Atlanta. I hope these photos inspire new designs and ideas at your garden site! Thanks to the community gardeners of Atlanta for sharing their beautiful gardens with us...

Old telephone poles create an elaborate entrance to this community garden....later a roof will be added to the poles to create a shaded spot and a water harvesting area for the garden.
