Flower Power

Wednesday, August 15, 2007

In David Tracey’s new book, Guerrilla Gardening: A Manualfesto (New Society Publishers, April 2007), he gives us a history of and how-to for turning abandoned lots into community gardens. He’s joined by one of New York’s original garden “guerrillas” Donald Loggins, a founding member of the Liz Christy Community Garden.

Guerrilla Gardening is available for purchase at Amazon.com.

    My block has many trees.

    Is it possible to plant trees on blocks that don't have trees.

    Can I remove existing sidewalk to plant more trees.

    Thanks,
