I worked broadly with a team of other CRP faculty and students on the initial phase of this project. A 9th Ward neighborhood gardener's home Post-Katrina Products of the team included: Project Research Summary Project Report-Executive Summary Project Report Project Powerpoint Presentation Project Poster #1 Project Poster #2 Pre-Katrina Upper 9th Ward Park Service Area Poster Post-Katrina Upper 9th Ward Park Service Area Poster Community Gardens Options for the 9th Ward Poster "What is a community garden?" primer "How to start a community garden in the 9th Ward" primer Urban Community Land Trusts primer "What is Civic Agriculture?" primer "What is Urban Community Forestry?" primer Urban Soils primer |
