When you are limited by space, a community garden allows you to have a bountiful harvest despite the fact that you didnt plant much. Depending on the site of you rock gardens, the weather conditions, and the temperament of the plants will help make your decision. The main thing to keep in mind as you design it is that you want to create an area where you will feel peaceful enough to quietly reflect on life and find the inner strength to carry you through your daily tasks. To be able to create a beautiful garden, you need to invest a lot of time, effort and money. When you garden within a group or community setting, there is the opportunity to share resources such as tools or wheelbarrows.
