Activities begin even before creating a garden itself, usually with an idea and likeminded people. The initiative must have its own implementation plan and know how it will provide the resources necessary for gardening and space.
If a physical space planned for a garden is not owned by people who would like to establish a garden, it is first necessary to find out who is the owner of the space. This process can take long enough, so this time could be used to generate the idea of a garden, which will sometimes come in handy in presenting the idea to the landowner. Also it is important to think of how the garden will be maintained and how the budget needed for arranging the area and the garden will be collected.
Activities in the garden may be different and not necessarily related to gardening. A garden may become a place for community gathering, for discussing current issues, learning or teaching. Activities can be divided into indoor and outdoor, also the following main categories of activities can be distinguished by nature: educational, gastronomic, cultural and leisure. This list is not exhaustive, and each space and its context may offer other activities that would best suit the area and its target audience.
