I scope out a patch of unkempt land, like this grassy patch behind my house:
Then, I sprinkle wild flower seeds onto the ground and hope for the best!
After my weekend renegade mission to beautify my own block, I set-out spread blossoms across the city. I hit a couple of wild, weed- and garbage-covered hills of West Baltimore while I waited for the train this morning......Where next?
What a great idea! I love the term "renegade gardener" :)
ReplyDeleteYou rebel you! You plant those wildflowers! That is a great idea and being a constructive renegade is still being a renegade! like a little green Robin Hood! (Men in tights preferably!)
ReplyDeletehmmm....like the opposite of graffiti. had some folks in london doing a similar thing not too long ago. travelling in groups they would descend on an unsightly plot then set about weeding, clearing litter and planting various flowers. I think needed permission from the local government though.
ReplyDeletei agree with children of the nineties. renegade gardener is a clever one!
ReplyDeletekeep up the green work!
Make your spot bloom!
ReplyDeleteI can't claim the "renegade gardener" term as my own....I told a friend about my plans to spread seed across the city and she came up with the term.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun idea! Hope they grow!
ReplyDeleteSo this is what closet-hippies do with their spare time, lol. =P I hope you're planning on before/after pictures!
ReplyDeleteI hit the grassy spots around my train station yesterday.....There will definitely be before and after photos assuming anything grows! Fingers crossed!
ReplyDeleteSeriously great idea!! I love this and am stealing it so I can pretty up my areas.... :)
