    Hey guys, glad you brought this up! They actually get a lot of donations from home owners who have extra plants laying around, as well as donations from smaller local stores and they simply tell folks what they're doing. Rebecca actually grows a lot of succulents at her home, which you can clip off to start new plants which is a really economical way of doing this. If you're interested in GG, don't be afraid to ask around for donations, you may be surprised! :)

    DUde! i wanted to do something like this for the longest time. I"ve been really into the idea of RAK, and it started with going through a toll and paying for someone behind me. Then I did the same with Sbux, and Id pay for a coffee order @ the drivethru for someone behind me. Then I decided to go around with washable window marker and write inspiring quotes on random cars. Recently I had this Idea of "Anti-pranking", and it would be something similar to this: G.G. Love it guys! Keep on keepin on

    They typically call'em Landscaping companies.
    But you'd have to find private property owners or the local municipality leaders willing to pay for what was, until now, not that important.
    However, many businesses and home owners pay top dollar for upkeep of there outdoors areas. Additionally, smaller banks or private home investors have been known to need this sort of work for foreclosed properties with overgrown yards.
    Hope that helps, and you weren't too offended by my initial sarcasm.

  • @elandres83
    @elandres83 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Just wondering, Do Guerrilla Gardeners typically live in apartments? I feel part of the motivation is that they do not have their own yard to do the same. This sounds fun, I live in the burbs, and everything nearby that is public is very well kept, ??unfortunately??
    I have had to help with gardening in the yard all my life, and sure I resented it in my childhood and early adolescence. But as I matured, I gained a real appreciation of gardening, not to mention the work and skills required.

    @elandres83 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    I thought about that too, I guess its not for everybody.
    If this were a thing I could do in my area: kickstarter.
    But I guess this could be considered a hobby or a form of charity. Not everyone subscribes to such notions of giving back, as it is hard looking out for #1 these days. But we are social creatures, and we share space, especially in big cities. So contributing to society is directly valuable, if you can afford it. And indirectly, you'll find it does come full circle.

    I wouldn't think it would be too hard to fund small planting projects. Plants are not expensive. The places they plant are not enormous. Tools are something you have at your home and can share or buy and reuse over and over. I assume they have some sort of income. There might be a lot of them. It doesn't seem unaffordable in the least.
