The Central Northeast Neighbors Coalition, in partnership with students from Portland State University, is 'growing a network.' The innovative and exciting group they've launched, GardenNet, is designed to promote access to, and provide information about, community gardens and access to healthy and affordable food in Central Northeast neighborhoods.

The GardenNet website features a map of existing gardens and farmers markets, news updates, involvement and educational events, and links to community resources.

CNN invites community members to share their opinions, ideas, and resources through roundtable dialogue and by filling out a survey they've designed. They hope to identify what's happening with community gardens and food access in your community - using this information, they'll improve their forum to provide you with the most relevant, interesting and important information.
