Be a guerilla gardener

Bath, England

In Bath, England, guerrilla gardeners took to the streets by filling potholes with flowers as a peaceful form of protest against neglected roadway infrastructure. By planting colourful blooms directly into the damaged road surfaces, the participants transformed potholes into mini-gardens that invited both surprise and reflection. The unsanctioned but benign gesture highlighted local frustration with street conditions while offering a moment of beauty, and the action gained media attention and inspired copy-cat efforts in other places.
