(A picture of a P-Patch in the U District)
P-patches offer the resource for Seattleans to grow fresh vegetables, flowers, and fruits in the nearby streets of their house. Teresa took my class and myself on a tour two p-patches and they were so intriguing to me. I thought that it was so refreshing to see people growing their own food. Many people that live in the city think that it is to big of a hassle to grow their own foods or they do not have anywhere to grow them but, the p-patches offer the city people to live a country life (kind of)! I think that the idea of p-patches was a good idea by the city to set some land aside for people to by able to grow their own food. I do not know if I will ever rent out a plot for myself because living in a dorm and trying to grow some fruits and vegetables could be a little demanding but, I think that p-patches should continue on growing because they are valuable to the city and to the people that use them.
