Guerrilla gardening is the radical act of growing plants in public places. Guided by the activist and author of Get Guerrilla Gardening, Ellen Miles, you'll learn how to transform a neglected corner of your neighbourhood into a vibrant garden.
Following a potted introduction to the guerrilla gardening movement, Ellen will guide you through the "7 Ps" of action – Purpose, Place, People, Plan, Parts, Plant, and Protect.
All attendees will leave with your own unique action plan in a miniature paper planner and some wildflower seeds to start your own guerilla gardening adventure
