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.
