Community Garden
Return to DiscussionsIt's all in the numbers. What is the adult population within a convenient driving distance from the land? Of that number how many are nudists/naturists? Of that number how many are enthusiastic gardeners who do not have their own gardening land? This is your target audience. If there's a nudist club or camp in your area, they may have useful information to factor into the number crunching. AANA may have such data, but I don't know if they were willing to share it. Good luck!!
I hate to be a wet blanket, but I think this would be quite difficult to accomplish. I have worked in some community gardens before and the members typically want to live very close as they tend to go there most days. As the other poster indicated, when you add up the demographics of distance, nudists, and gardeners, you've really limited the member base.

Yep. The very large disadvantage I see is that it needs to be local, community focused. The gardens need frequent tending, thus the participants need to be close by. I can think of a few communities where it might work--places that already have very successful CGs and progressive communities. That, however, is certainly not where I live unless there are a lot of closet want-to-be naked gardeners and nudist about I am unaware of. I say that, but it is possible they are here, and a clothing optional gardening opportunity might be a relatively benign way to pull some out of the closet. Unfortunately, the land I own is much to far away from town to work. Otherwise, I might follow up on this idea.
