You can totally do it! Starting small is the key in my opinion. Before kicking of Food is Free Project, I just had a small front yard garden and being out there started many conversations with neighbors and others of like mind and heart. Those connections provided a great foundation for the bigger vision of lining a block in gardens to happen and established connections with volunteers, tools, seeds and supplies. Start extra seedlings and give them away or consider hosting a seed swap/potluck where neighbors and friends can come together, share a meal and brainstorm some ideas about growing and sharing food. Share your vision with as many people as possible because you never know who you may run into that shares that vision and you may well find things unfolding before you know it. Go for it and stay in touch with how things go. Take photos along the way and share them with all of us!

I already have started telling people :D I like the idea of the seed swap and potluck. Ive already been trying to get a potluck started in this town for everyone to get together. I can definitely see how starting small would be more advantageous in this town. Im going to start planting soon. It is still winter and still full of snow out there but i got a nice sunroom to start with. We have short summer seasons here and need to make the most of what we got. Will get in touch when things start ^_^ Thank you :D
