Read the passage. "When the city converted the vacant lot on Ellice Avenue into a community garden, sceptics predicted it would be abandoned by July. Instead, forty families claimed plots, neighbours who had never spoken shared tools and seeds, and the lot that once collected litter now produces tomatoes and rhubarb. The garden did not just grow food; it grew a neighbourhood." What is the main idea of the passage?

Community gardens are usually abandoned within a few months. The garden's greatest success was bringing neighbours together, not just producing food. Sceptics are always wrong about city projects. Exactly forty families signed up for plots on Ellice Avenue.

Correct Answer:

The garden's greatest success was bringing neighbours together, not just producing food.
