grow your own high street
the Incredible Edible story, and why it matters
FROM ‘PROPAGANDA PLANTING’...
TO RETHINKING PUBLIC SPACE
CHANGING THE STORY OF A TOWN THROUGH FOOD...
...BY BUILDING COMMUNITY
...BY SHARING LEARNING
...BY CREATING OPPORTUNITIES FOR BUSINESS
...AND ADDRESSING THE REALLY BIG ISSUES
from incredible edible
to thriving high streets:
rethinking public space
STEP ONE: OPEN UP PUBLIC SPACE (OR TAKE IT OVER)
STEP TWO: THINK OF YOUR TOWN AS A GARDEN
STEP THREE: THINK OF YOUR TOWN AS A PROMENADE
STEP FOUR: THINK OF YOUR TOWN AS A STAGE
HIGH STREETS AS COMMONS:
ACCESS, OWNERSHIP AND AGENCY ARE KEY
‘It is through the performance of creative acts, in
art, in thought, in personal relationships, that the
city can be identified as something more than a
purely functional organisation of factories and
warehouses, barracks, courts, prisons and
control centres.’
Lewis Mumford, The City in History, 1961
Incredible! Plant Veg, Grow a Revolution
will be published in May 2014
