Community gardens have sprouted up in neighborhoods across the city due to consumers who understand the importance of buying local, in-season produce, or growing it themselves. Join Green Spaces Alliance and Texas Public Radio for a panel this Sunday to learn more about growing food in your own backyard, cooperating with friends and neighbors to share a community garden, and preparing the fresh produce you’ll harvest. Free, 1-4pm, Windcrest Civic Center, 9310 Jim Seal Drive, greenspacesalliance.org.
