Did you have fun, beauty, and a bit of naughty?
International Sunflower Guerrilla Gardening Day 2009
The 3rd annual event for guerrilla gardeners around the world to get
out there and sow sunflower seeds in their neighborhoods was held May 1st. Launched by the Brussels' Farmers in 2007
http://brussels-farmer.blogspot.com/ and championed by
GuerrillaGardening.org, its a great way to make positive change to a local neglected land while having fun at the same time.
The sunflower
(
Helianthus annuus) is a beacon of the potential of our land. Not only
do they boldly beautify space but also to make it productive since they're a
favorite of wildlife. See results on
http://guerrillagardening.org/community/index.php
Richard Reynold's book, On Guerrilla Gardening, is FABulous!

Published in 2005 after 15 years of urban gardening experience, this book was written for people who think gardening is difficult. It's not! Here's practical "how-to" basics, can-do ideas, and where to plant! No matter where you live, there are plenty of gardening opportunities.
The simple act of planting a seed creates more than a zinnia or tomato plant. Not only will you enjoy a flower's scent or savor a tasty vegetable, by improving quality-of-life with gardening, you also beautify and benefit your home, community, environment, wildlife, and yourself.
Thank you for visiting. I dedicate this website and my love to my husband, Fred, who brought me north to the Hudson Highlands from the island of Manhattan to share in the awe and joy of gardening, wildlife, and life.
gardenyourcity.com reflects my volunteer and professional experiences, places, people, principals, gardens, products, clients, and information that I hope will enrich your gardens and lives.
