A community garden (the term favored in the United States,
Canda) is a single piece of land gardened collectively by a group of people. Community
gardens provide fresh produce and plants as well as satisfying labor,
neighborhood improvement, sense of community and connection to the environment. They are publicly functioning in terms of ownership,
access, and management, as well as typically owned
in trust by local governments or not for profit associations. Source
Victoria Gardens is a pedestrian-oriented, open-air, mixed-use town center in Rancho Cucamonga, California. Located North of Foothill Boulevard between Day Creek Boulevard and Etiwanda Avenue by the Interstate 15 freeway, the 147-acre project consists of residential areas, office space, retail stores, public plazas, a movie theater, and a civic cultural arts center. It officially opened October 28, 2004. The Victoria Gardens Cultural Center, which features the Rancho Cucamonga Public Library, a performing arts center, and a multi-use reception hall, is owned and operated by the city of Rancho Cucamonga and sits north of the shopping center between the two parking structures. In 2006, the former Robinsons-May store was converted to a Macy's Men's and Home Store to complement the existing Macy's. Source
