Any tips on starting a community vegetable garden?

Question by Katie M: Any tips on starting a community vegetable garden?
I live in an subdivision that has quite a bit of extra property. I’m thinking this might be a good time for our little community to come together and plant a vegetable garden.
Does anyone have any experience in starting something like this? What about the shady neighbors (yes, there are some) who like to take things that don’t belong to them?

I’ve never personally done something like that but I would imagine there wouldn’t really be any way to police rude people taking that which they haven’t helped with.

It does sound like a good idea and a nice way to bring you and your neighbors together.

Perhaps start from seeds.. Obviously there will be money spent on starting something like this but at least seeds are cheaper than plants.. in case people do end up stealing it would be as bad? I’m not sure just trying to think of something =)
