Bookroo's summary

In a vibrant urban neighborhood, an abandoned lot holds the potential for transformation. Neighbors unite, turning this neglected space into a flourishing vegetable garden. As they build planter boxes, pull weeds, and plant seeds, the community grows closer. With each step, strangers become friends, culminating in a shared feast from their bountiful harvest. How will this garden change their lives and the neighborhood forever?

From the publisher

In a bustling, urban neighborhood, count the ways one little lot becomes a beautiful community vegetable garden. Count all the ways (one to ten) an urban community unites to clean up an abandoned lot. From building planter boxes to pulling weeds to planting seeds, everyone works together to transform the lot into a bountiful vegetable garden. As the garden grows, strangers become friends, eventually sharing in a special feast with the harvest they grew.
