Wow, you don't need to yell!!* Since you don't say where you live I would suggest you contact your local government or extension service.

I understand you not wanting to share where you live.* You could add your state and plant hardiness zone to your profile. You can see mine says zone 7 - Maryland.* Being at a forum where you have to register and can hide your e-mail address from public view helps to protect your privacy.

Anyway, I went to http://www.google.com/ and put in the search box:
King County + Washington + community garden
The very first listing lead me here.

You can click on 'Community Garden Programs (Public)' and there's a whole list!* :)

Now you know how to search.* ;)

You are so very welcome!!* I'm ordering my salad with ranch dressing now.* ;)

Why not plant a cover crop for the winter?* It will look better, hold the soil in place and add good nutrients to the soil.* Need info on it?

Info is always welcome!! Thanks Newt!! Also I did what you said to put my zone in if you haven't noticed!

You seem to be very interested in organics and more info all the time, so I'm sure this site won't be too much for you. * Some folks think I use sites that are a bit too complicated sometimes.* :?

I did notice that you added your state and zone.* When I realized what time it is here, I knew that it's 3 hours earlier where you are.* :)
