I want to tag an area of land which is used for growing various types of vegetables: tomatoes, lettuce, onions, potatoes, etc. I don't see it as landuse=allotments or landuse=orchard or landuse=farm, so what is it? Thanks. asked 10 Feb '11, 14:25  tongro edited 10 Feb '11, 15:47  GrahamS |
One Answer:
Are they being grown commercially or for private use? What are your misgivings with using these tags? answered 10 Feb '11, 15:47 GrahamS |
It's a plot of private rural land which is not a full-scale farm, so it's not allotments, but landuse=farm seems too general. Landuse=horticulture would seem to be right, but I don't want to use non-standard tags.
I'd just go with farm then. A farm doesn't have to imply 200 acres of fields. There are plenty of small farms in cities for example.
