Vigilante Gardener
I decide to illegally grow a vegetable garden on a neglected patch of land in Brooklyn. www.twitter.com The garden is located on 8th Ave and 5th Street in Brooklyn, New York. Feel free to stop by and water it if you’re in the area.

Some day, I will leave California and travel across the US to New York, just to see this garden. You’ve inspired me to travel and hear others stories, and share my own.

People like you make me realize there is still hope for humanity. You show that it is not necessary to be wealthy to be a philanthropist you just need to act.

@dannyd34 It’s illegal because they dont own the spot. It’s like someone would clamp into your garden and start planting. it still illegal even if it looks like shit to begin with. I’m rooting for him tho

I saw the garden this weekend and can report that there were some hearty tomatoes almost ready to be picked and eaten. It is coming along nicely – I hope this continues all over.

Keep up the great work! We’re busy guerilla gardening on this side of the pond.

Any updates on the garden? I think this is such a cool idea and why would anybody get you in trouble for making such an ugly spot beautiful and useful again?

Cool idea. I plant a garden every year but live in the country so it is easy. My questions, Why is it illegal? Are you just calling it illegal to bring attention to your video? Can you actually show statutes of the law making it illegal? I hardly think anyone including the rightful owners would object to the usefulness you are putting this otherwise unuseful piece of ground to.
