An accessible guide to public planting with purpose, encouraging people to make urban communities greener, healthier, and happier
Discover why it's worth greening your community in this engaging, step-by-step framework on how to guerrilla garden.
Guerrilla gardening is the art and science of planting in a public place with a purpose. Whether you want to boost biodiversity, grow food, clean the air, or empower a community, you can join this new wave of a movement that combines grassroots direct action with flower power!
How do you know which plants are right for the plot or how to find like-minded locals? Follow Ellen Miles's 6 Ps of guerrilla gardening to find out: purpose, place, plan, people, parts, plant. Sow wildflower seeds in a city tree bed, build a parklet in a parking space, or turn an abandoned lot into a community garden, tackling climate change and social inequality as you go.
This is a collaboration between a new wave of young guerrilla gardeners, ecologists, and horticulturists, such as Poppy Okotcha, Tayshan Hayden-Smith, and Hafsah Hafeji. Full of inspiring photographs of green transformations, illustrations of DIY projects, and a step-by-step framework to follow, this book makes collective action straightforward and fun.
Whether you want to create a planter from a tin can or turn an abandoned telephone booth into a community herb garden, this book gives you (most of) the tools to transform lifeless patches of public land into vibrant pockets of plant life.
