Eagle Heights: The Oldest U.S. Community Garden

07/14/11 | 6m 34s | Rating: TV-G

We visit with Robin Mittenthal at one of the oldest and largest community gardens in the country, which happens to be right here in Wisconsin. The Eagle Heights Community Gardens was founded in the 1950s and now has 520 plots. That's a lot of produce and it's grown by UW-Madison students and their families from all over the world.
