Among the Community Gardens being toured by a small group of gardeners and community-building supporters on Sunday were -
1 Allendale (Allen at Buena Vista)
2 Highland (Herndon at Stephens)
3 Centenary (Oak at Rutherford)
4 Cedar Grove (73rd at Line)
5 CCCP 38 (Woodrow at Bernstein)
6 Sankofa (Tulane at McWillie)
The discussions were about how to win the good will of a neighborhood and whether to fence or not.
The bicyclists, being led by Maurice Loridans - an advocate for bicycle commuting - were surprised at their ability to make each section of the ride into a pleasant experience.
In the works is a map of the gardens and a recommended walking or bicycling tour.
The tour - the non-bikers rode a small bus - was an exploration and not advertised to the public.
