Young Curly Brunette Girl In The Field Of Sunflowers

International Sunflower Guerrilla Gardening Day
International Sunflower Guerrilla Gardening Day is 1 May. It is a day when guerrilla gardeners around the world plant sunflowers in their neighborhood, typically in neglected public places such as tree pits, shabby flower beds and bare roadside verges. It has taken place since 2007 and was conceived by guerrilla gardeners in Brussels, (who go by the name The Brussels Farmers). They declared it Journée Internationale de la Guérilla Tournesol. It has been championed by guerrilla gardeners around the world, notably by GuerrillaGardening.org and participation has grown each year since then. In 2010 more than 5000 people signed up to the event from North America, Europe and Asia. Although horticulturally sunflower sowing at this time the year is limited to relatively temperate parts the northern hemisphere, this day is also marked in other parts the world by planting appropriate to the season.
