- Guerrilla Gardening can be seen as a form of political gardening, or an example of nonviolent direct action, in which local people take control of their environment either to improve it and/or to make a political point. Activists will take over land which they don't own, usually abandoned or neglected public spaces, to grow crops or plants either for food or to improve the landscape.
- Guerrilla gardening is political gardening, a form of nonviolent direct action done by Greens (environmental protestors). Activists take over an abandoned piece of land which they don't own to grow crops or plants. The practices are non- violent, unlike guerrilla warfare that can cause bloodshed. Guerrilla gardeners believe in reclaiming land from neglect or misuse and assigning a new purpose for it.

abstract
| - Guerrilla gardening is political gardening, a form of nonviolent direct action done by Greens (environmental protestors). Activists take over an abandoned piece of land which they don't own to grow crops or plants. The practices are non- violent, unlike guerrilla warfare that can cause bloodshed. Guerrilla gardeners believe in reclaiming land from neglect or misuse and assigning a new purpose for it. Guerrilla gardeners will sometimes carry out their actions late at night geared up with gardening gloves, watering cans, compost, seeds and plants. They plant and sow a new vegetable patch or flowering garden. Others will work more openly, actively seeking to engage with members of the local community, as illustrated in the examples below.
