We have four community gardens in Kamloops that are managed by the
Kamloops Food Policy Council.  The coordinator's name is Katherine
Kritsch.  You can contact her by phone at (250) 314-6420 - I'm sure that
she would be able to give you the kind of information you are looking
for.

Also, there is a book put out by Food Share Metro Toronto by Laura
Berman called How Does Our Garden Grow? A Guide to Community Garden
Success - you may want to get your hands on this also.  Another
suggested resource: Food Security in Canada by Laura Kalina, this book
has a section on community food action projects such as community
gardens and kitchens.
