| 13 | A measure of per capita garden area per target distance - public community gardens provide active interaction with nature and opportunities for social cohesion | ||
| 14 | |||
| 15 | Measuring community gardens as part of the greenspace network in cities gives an indicator of a range of factors such as: accessible greenspace provision and preservation, diversity of land use for humans and biodiversity, sustainable use of vacant land, climate regulation (cooling, stormwater, reduced GHG emissions associated with food transportation), food security, physical activity, access to healthy food/fruit and vegetable consumption, community cohesion and empowerment. Ultimately community gardens deliver a social function. Mapping exercises can also be used to identify areas where future community garden (CG) projects should be targeted (i.e., need for CGs). | ||
