A study evaluated the adequacy of five school gardens in Çanakkale city center, Turkey, as public open green spaces, using observation and site examination of green space adequacy, plant structural and equipment elements, per-capita green space, and playground quality. It found that the school gardens were insufficient in area, were not planned according to landscape architecture design principles, and lacked adequate plant material and equipment. As solutions, the study proposed separating vehicle and student entrances, designing dedicated seating areas, and creating designated educational activity areas within the gardens.
