Gamble Garden: Landscape of Optimism celebrates an early twentieth-century property in Palo Alto, California and tells how it has become a haven and treasured community centerpiece. All who love gardens and value green space within suburban and urban settings will find inspiration for their own towns in this modest-size garden with its outsize horticultural and civic payoff. The book is about the deeply meaningful rewards and shared experiences in creating a public garden, its value to all who enjoy its offerings, and those who are committed to its ongoing success. This is a model for any city, region, or entity interested in creating community through garden-centered opportunities and will spark innovation for gardens that already exist.
