Little
Schrebergarten (Schreber Garden) allotments, named after
a 19th-century German doctor who didn't invent them, but
rather organized them. You will find these in the most
unlikely places, for instance, directly between
factories and railroad embankments.
It's a quite walk
down the path going to Werner & Lissi's place, but I know
when I get there I'll be greeted with hugs
and kisses and a big welcome. There are
about 40-50 little summer houses located on
private property, owned by one person. The
lots are sectioned off and a leased out.
The renters can not live there, they live in the
town. It's a great little getaway place.
The summer houses are a place to relax and
barbecue and sit under the shade trees.
You will see on all the lots vegetable and
flower gardens and most all have grape vines.
There is no plumbing on the property, but they
do have wells. The renters can build
anything they want on their lot, of course it
stays with the property when they leave though.
What a unique idea, rental space for those who
do not have place for a garden at their home. |
