Calling all Neighbours: Let's Beautify and Transform our 'Hood Together

Kirkendall Guerrilla Gardeners is a group dedicated to transforming neglected spaces in our neighbourhood into beautiful oases for everyone to enjoy. We're inspired by the thousands of people in cities around the world who, individually and collectively, are:

• reclaiming unused, misused and abandoned urban spaces to grow flowers, trees or food for public benefit;
• empowering themselves and each other to transform their own communities and cities into the places they need and want, rather than waiting for others to do it for them; and
• creating and strengthening relationships in the community by acting together to make positive change

We recognize that the economic and environmental challenges of our era will require large scale changes, but also small and local changes too, in the way we organize our cities, get and share our resources, and relate to each other as a community. The KGG aims to make a contribution to that change, through the simple act of neighbours gardening together.

We've got one project nearly completed, and some exciting plans for the coming months. Check back soon for pictures of the KGG's first garden, on Pearl Street. In the meantime, if you're interested in getting involved, please send us an email at kgggrow@gmail.com.
