Erica (ADM's Green Ass Garden), Samantha (SharesGarden Community, De Luwte, Rijkshemelvaartdienst), and Shoko (GreenTribe) share their tips and tricks of a successful squatted community garden. We digest, compost, and decompose experiences in squatted Amsterdam gardens. In our rainy, summerless, sunless, Amsterdam environment; in our city where the rich peat soils have been converted into building sites and rubbish tips, these abandoned building sites and rubbish tips are our homes and our backyards, and are the alternative to industrial agriculture, neo-techno-pharmaceutical medicines, and carcinogenic-containing cosmetics. We discuss techniques, what works well, and what doesn’t work so well. If you’re already an active gardener, you can learn some new tips and if you don’t yet garden, you’re going to be motivated to get those hands and feet dirty. This discussion was broadcast live from the Green Tribe by radiopatapoe.nl on Sunday 17th September 2021 as part of Amsterdam's Culterele Stelling Open Dag. Photo by Danielle Oilfairy.
