People using a community garden in Vancouver’s False Creek are asking the city not to pave over their paradise.

Those behind the Cottonwood Community Garden are worried the city could consider widening Malkin Avenue — the road next to their plots — if the viaducts come down. 

As the CBC's Jodie Martinson reports, the gardeners have started a petition and are campaigning to save their green space.
