Plants and household goods were traded and exchanged by visitors and neighbors.
The inventory at G.E.E.E. changed throughout the year reflecting the seasons
and community participation.
Cream Co. artists were often on hand to assist and engage with visitors
though an honor system kept G.E.E.E. running unattended.
Transactions were recorded and displayed to show the growth and change of community involvement.
The rooftop tomato garden produced an abundance of heirloom tomatoes
and also served as classroom for a community garden class run by Cream Co.
The Big Dig Gig, invited participation in an Abundance Garden, where neighbors brought their surplus plants to trade with each other and to donate to the Hyde Park Art Center’s public walkways.
Cream Co. signs always say it best!
