Glos Guerilla Gardening meet-up

I’ve been talk­ing to lots of peo­ple inter­est­ed in start­ing some form of gueril­la gar­den­ing group in glouces­ter­shire, and I’m sure there are many more of you out there…

So lets get gar­den­ing!

This is a chance for activists, gar­den­ers, neo-dig­gers, allot­ment­less peas­ants, per­ma­cul­ture ini­ti­ates *chuck­les* and any­one inter­est­ed in the glouces­ter­shire eco-vil­lage project to meet each oth­er, to net­work and sow a lit­tle beau­ty into our oth­er­wise drea­ry world.

If you’re inter­est­ed in doing a lit­tle gueril­la gar­den­ing next Thurs­day [the 23rd] con­tact…

Bring what­ev­er you think will be use­ful — seeds, cut­tings, seedlings, seeds bombs, gar­den­ing tools, coats, drinks’n’­munchies, hi-vis?!- for hid­ing in plane sight.

Don’t wor­ry if you don’t have any of these things, there’ll be plen­ty for you to do- come along and get stuck in!

It’ll be some­where near glouces­ter, maybe even near the town cen­ter, or we could do it in the more rur­al out­skirts- still open to sug­ges­tions for a loca­tion to gar­den- email me.

I have a cou­ple in mind, but I’m hop­ing some­one will know of the per­fect place. We’ll all decide on the day, maybe spread our gar­den­ing around a lit­tle.

I’ll be focus­ing main­ly on food plants- but bring any­thing you’d like to plant!

“..yet my mind was not at rest, because noth­ing was act­ed, and thoughts run in me that words and writ­ings were all noth­ing, and must die, for action is the life of all, and if thou dost not act, thou dost noth­ing,”
