Project of the week/2010/May 23

This week's project: "Gardening"

Ah, spring is finally in the air in the northern climes. Tradition in these parts of Southern Ontario (Canada) is to do your first gardening of the year on the Victoria Day weekend. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victoria_Day Any earlier and you risk a frost-kill. Any later and you risk a frost-kill before you can harvest your tomatoes and cucumbers.

So to celebrate Victoria Day, and nature's awesome majesty in the form of fruits, vegetables and decorative flowers, the Project of the Week is to map the things that we plant in the ground.

The things that we plant in the ground

shop=garden_centre A shop to purchase plants or seeds for your garden.

leisure=garden An organized collection of plants for decoration or harvest.

landuse=allotments Typically shared space for vegetable gardens provided by the municipality.
