Thanks for posting this, and best wishes for your urban gardening! I live along the Bushwick/Ridgewood border and have noticed several families planting squash, tomatoes, and even corn in their front yards. Otherwise cities are mostly artificial desert of our own creation. I linked to this image in an article about urban heat islands and climate change solutions. It's interesting that so many of the big green spots in Brooklyn and Queens are cemeteries.
