Community gardens vary enormously in what they offer, according to local needs and circumstance.This article reports on research and experience from the USA. The context in which these findings are discussed is the implementation of Local Agenda  and sustainable development policies. In particular, emphasis is given to exploring the social dimension of sustainable development policies by linking issues of health, education, community development and food security with the use of green space in towns and cities. The article concludes that the use of urban open spaces for parks and gardens is closely associated with environmental justice and equity.

Localization methods for breast lesions including cancers have changed and advanced since their inception. Currently, the most widely used technique in the United Kingdom is the image‐guided hook wire localizer developed in the 1970s. It remains as the gold standard for localization of impalpable breast tumors. Besides its advantages, there are some disadvantages associated with this technique. In recent years, novel wire‐free techniques (eg, Magseed®, SCOUT®, and LOCalizer™) have been developed to not only localize impalpable breast lesions but also negate the disadvantages of wire localization. This article reviews the variety of techniques from their origins to the most recent advancements that are used to localize breast lesions. The future is heading toward non‐wire technology and wire localization may then be reserved for special cases.
