Green Tuesday Monona: A Lot in Common

In the award-winning film A Lot in Common, a community garden grows community as well as food, flowers, and consciousness. A diverse group turns a vacant lot in Berkeley, California into a blooming community garden full of lush native California vegetation, eco-friendly technology demonstrations, and outdoor artwork by local artists. They clash over political ideals, runaway pets, and public art, yet in the end, grow a community of neighbors. Includes Jane Jacobs, PBS reporter/author Ray Suarez, environmentalist Paul Hawken, Urban Habitat co-founder Carl Anthony, and landscape architect/psychologist Karl Linn. "Wonderful, touching, funny, and inspirational...it speaks to the very nature of why many of us think that community gardening brings people together in the best of ways." – Beebo Turman, Berkeley Community Gardening Collaborative
