San Diego Food Not Lawns organized a Bike Tour of Edible San Diego on November 12. "The idea was to get folks out on bicycles to look at some of the school gardens and community gardens and front yard gardens that people have been putting in to get us excited about the possibilities of a greener San Diego and a San Diego where food is everywhere."

Leaving from Balboa Park, the roughly 15 mile tour visited the worm bins and gardens at Grant Elementary School in Mission Hills, Food Not Bombs serving a meal at North Park Park, gardens at Central Elementary in CIty Heights, a front-yard community garden project at the Activist San Diego House, and the Golden Hills Community Garden in Balboa Park.

San Diego Food Not Lawns is part of a recently created international movement for "using our resources, our land, our water, our energy for growing food for people instead of on lawns." (less)
