Last night I watched a movie called “The Garden”. It was directed by Scott Kennedy and was an Academy Award Nominee for 2009. It came out in 2008. It tells the story of a 14 acre community garden in South Central LA. This is the largest community garden in the US. I am amazed at what these people, mostly Hispanics, have been through in order to keep these gardens in operation. It is a heartbreaking and joyful experience. Please watch. I found it at Blockbuster right there on the shelf, of all places. I am sending a link to a recent article about where the process is at currently.
