Presently, the location is in the final stages of development, with plans for a grand opening later this month. The garden boasts 22 assignable plots, each accompanied by a customizable sign, a toggleable fence, and a radio that activates upon entering and deactivates upon exiting the plot area. There are three plot variations
available: 20x40 with 128mb, 20x20 with 64mb, and 10x40 with 64 Mb. 
This community region serves as a fascinating experiment, utilizing the room floor system to create a harmonious space. The region is named "Blossoms and Books" and is currently open to the public, welcoming plot assignment requests.
