Guerilla gardening

Does anyone here plant in areas that they are not authorized to plant?
No. With multiple acres of garden I have all the work and effort I need
right outside my doors.
This year, I had a lot of little raspberry shoots out in the yard, and I
decided to dig them up and plant them instead of just mowing them down.
There is a park near here that had an section that was used for dumping old
broken up concrete and leaves vacuumed off the streets. The surrounding
area has improved a lot, and they no longer dump stuff there, but they
never really cleaned it up. So, I planted raspberries in several places.
My hope is that they'll spread. That was about a week ago.
Then today I got my replacement tree from Gurney's for the one that died (a
Goldrush). For some reason, they threw in an extra free tree, a Pixie
Crunch. Lovely apples, but the two I have are impossible to keep totally
free of rust because there are lots of cedar trees on this block.
Have you guessed where I'm going? Yep, I took the tree to the park and
planted it. I am the guerilla gardener.
Good for you. I might do the same thing if I was in a city or town.
