Our Solution

To allow any passerby regardless of economic status to become involved with the garden, a tablet interface would now sit at the garden entrance. Gardeners we spoke with have difficulty getting started and learning new skills. With "Broccoli for All," citizens can join a community garden to learn alongside their neighbors in the pursuit of a common goal. Once a garden member, they can consult a companion mobile app to receive notifications about the garden.

Get acquainted with your neighborhood garden. As a garden manager, more easily complete existing tasks of monitoring plot health and notifying gardeners of updates.

View overall garden health. Click on your plot to see how it is doing. Help ensure that all gardeners are putting forth the needed effort to keep the garden healthy and prevent collective neglect of plots.

Apply to volunteer on another individual's plot rather than wait a couple years to obtain your own. Work with your co-gardener, learn valuable agricutlural skills along the way.
