Description

"Yardsharing is an arrangement between people to share gardening resources – land, time, tools, seeds, skills and labor– to grow food locally. By cooperating in a backyard garden, people can grow more food and flowers, work less weeding and hoeing, eat more locally grown foods and save money.

Since its inception in 2009, Hyperlocavore has steadily grown a vast network of green thumbs across the country. Within the site, people can connect with gardeners in their communities who are interested in participating in yard sharing programs.

“I created Hyperlocavore to encourage people to grow food with their friends, family and neighbors. It’s a social networked yard sharing community dedicated to help people build resilience in their neighborhood,” Hyperlocavore creator Liz McLellan said."
