This guided walk is part of the Garden Museum's new Branch Out programme, a series of free events and activities exploring gardening, art, floristry, plant science, history, design, and more!
Join author and founder of Dream Green, Ellen Miles, for a walk to discover and celebrate guerrilla gardening: the radical practice of cultivating public land.
Over the course of two hours, you’ll visit some of London’s historically significant guerrilla gardens while learning about the movement’s history, learn how to identify the perfect spots for grassroots greening, and do some renegade rewilding of your own – planting spring bulbs and sowing native wildflower seeds, under expert guidance.
Meet at the Garden Museum for 11am. Warm clothing and sturdy footwear are recommended!
Our Branch Out programme has been made possible thanks to funding from Arts Council England.
