The City of Philadelphia is planning to charge its 5000 low and
moderate income community vegetable gardeners for water service.
Philadelphians have been recycling and greening vacant lots since
1970 without paying for water service and at little or no cost to
the City.

We need to know whether other urban gardening programs, public or
private, pay for water service...and which ones do not. Please
e-mail me with your response.

We also need people who care about this issue to write to our
mayor and tell him what a truly nasty idea it is.
