Hey Rob, nice way of thinking about it.
When I was growing up a neighbor and my father ha a nice bit of land that was split by our many invisible property lines. They decided to ignore it and laid down a shared garden which ended up giving a bunch of food to a bunch of people.
So maybe a stronger idea is a communal garden. Are there any in operation in Puna? Or is the individualistic spirit too strong here? [
