Cityscape: Slices of life and scenes in Richmond/ Protected by netting, a cornucopia of greens and other vegetables grow in this garden at Brook Road and Wilmington Avenue in North Side. This is just one of many such gardens that are yielding a fresh bounty for those who participate in planting, watering and weed fighting. City Hall began promoting community gardening as one element of boosting healthy eating during the tenure of former Mayor Dwight C. Jones. The city’s support for community groups and volunteers willing to work together and manage a garden has continued under Mayor Levar M. Stoney. The city’s program makes vacant public property available to groups and organizations willing to take on the organizing task. (Sandra Sellars/Richmond Free Press)
