But wait, there's more:  Tomorrow, Sunday, is 596 Acres General Assembly from 5:30 to 7:30pm which will focus on folks actively engaged in the process of converting vacant public land into democratically governed, community-determined food and green space. This will be a chance for all to talk about best practices, how our networks can best support each other and what about the 596Acres platform you found most useful and most lacking. 

Members of 462 Halsey Community Garden, A Small Green Patch, Myrtle Village Green and yours truly, all projects of 596 Acres, are all coming, as well as organizers who have inquired about other vacant public land.  Also invited are representatives from IOBY, The Design Trust for Public Space 5 Borough Farm Project, the Brooklyn Food Coalition and the 596 Acres team.
