Description
GARDEN PROJECT--Mayor Tom Bradley and actor Eddie Albert turn the ground to open the first project in which city property can be used by the public to grow vegetables. This one was on a Department of Water and Power right-of-way under utility lines in Reseda. The mayor said 15-by-15 foot plots at this and future locations can be applied for at City Hall office of the Neighborhood Farm and Garden Project. Albert noted that there are miles of land sitting idle under power lines.
