I have an idea for those that have a community network of some kind. Get everyone you know to grow some vegetables in just 4 square feet of space. Ideally you would coordinate and decide on what each person to grow to have variety, but also based on the skill of the gardener, and the space they have. Include the amount of time they have as well.
At the end of the season: harvest, weigh, and preserve your produce whatever way is best so that at the end of the season everyone could meet and show what they accomplished.
This would give the community an idea of what is possible. It would be measurable and scalable. If there are enough people, it would also show a percentage of failures and great successes to be noted for future consideration.
Different environments: greenhouse, raised beds, cold frames, in the ground, window boxes, pots, indoors, apartment, public space, rural, etc. should all be included if possible.
