With regard to neighborhood communities, the Canadian government encourages such initiatives.

The proof, this organization: Community Action "dedicated to community development and improving the environment of the Notre-Dame-de-Grâce neighborhood in Montreal."
They acknowledge three goals: collective gardening, food security and community development. They have their website and most importantly, they have posted a .pdf: "a practical guide for starting and running a collective garden". It is really very practical, since the choice of the ground, the research of the subsidies (attention, it is in Canada), the animation with the seasons.

Other similar initiatives exist, for example the "Farm Folk / City Folk Society" in Vancouver

or the Foodshare in Toronto

http://www.foodshare.net/

These last two sites are in English.
