Abstract/Contents: | Overviews three golf courses in Connecticut, New Jersey, and Virginia which developed "productive organic gardens that provide fresh fruits and vegetables along with other interesting by-products." Highlights Aspetuck Valley Country Club in Weston, Connecticut, Ridgewood Country Club in Paramus, New Jersey, and Country Club of Virginia in Richmond, Virginia and their planting and maintenance of their club's gardens. Details that "all associated with the gardens have been overwhelmed with the support received from the membership and staff...all could also envision the concept growing even further in the future to produce an even wider array of vegetables and possibly expand into orchard fruits, nuts, eggs, and meat, where a site permits." |
