Chris once again promoting his glossy coffee table book which slags off people like reclaim the streets for giving guerrilla gardening a bad name by being "extreme" and political

this is a marketing niche not protest boycott this corporate sponsored wanker

how dare this article give a product placement /plug to business?

lush and ecotricity may be fluffy capitalists but that is still what they are

take this article down now

Kindly ignore the piteous whingeing from the two above. I am sick and tired of negative, unconstructive wankers like the above who have nothing better to do than sit on Indymedia trashing everybody and everything that doesn't fit in with their personal agenda.

Guerrilla gardening brings people together, improves neighborhoods, the environment and the overall quality of life for everybody. It often has the added bonus of embarrassing local authorities and shaming them into action. If that's not your thing, then fine - nobody's forcing you to get involved. But stop rubbishing people who are actually DOING something positive rather than sitting on their arses spouting hot air and bullshit.

Thanks Gregory!
I do not have any book out..you must mean Richard Reynolds.
Guerrilla gardening is not self masturbation but direct action!
ALL money is used for fruit trees ..I make not a penny..and practise freeconomy ..I am a regular person!

i am bemused that I have offended anyone by doing something!!

I have found the  http://www.guerrillagardening.org/ website to be a valuable resource with many of features from lots of diverse guerrilla gardening projects around the world.

Whilst the website may be maintained by one or two people, it doesn't appear to be dominated by any one group. My understanding is that 'Chris' is simply one of a number of occasional contributors to the website and certainly hasn't written any books; although I am glad the someone has taken the trouble to do so.

It would be great to see more guerrilla gardening groups sprouting up around the UK, and I hope that seeds are planted, in more ways that one, in Wolverhampton this weekend.
