Garden Plots Dept: They are planting on boulevards, digging garden plots in city parks, tearing the sod out of their back yards and even their front yards and filling their balconies with pots full of herbs and greens. It's the young, the urban, the cool. And the rest of us, too, according to Vancouver Sun. "We are going to get more ambitious with that Kitsilano space this year because it's an entire yard, so you can do a lot of stuff there," she said and a new generation of vegetable gardeners is transforming the urban environment and the way we are thinking about food. "I've been serious about gardening for about three years," said Rebecca Cuttler, a more-orless landless Strathcona resident. Cuttler, program manager of the Praxis Centre for Screenwriters at Simon Fraser University, lucked into a plot at the Cottonwood Community Garden near her home after joining a work party organized by the Cottonwood group last fall. She also has a garden at a home owned by her family in Kitsilano. As
