International Sunflower Guerrilla Gardening Day

On May 1st New Yorkers will take to the streets and #SeedTheCity with thousands of sunflower seeds. Get your hands on some seeds, plot your route, grab your friends and choose your own adventure. @Green Guerillas NYC is distributing seeds through the @GreenThumb #GrowTogether conference with events happening in all 5 boros. Each boro has a specific variety of sunflower and people all 5 Boros are encouraged to rep your hood by both planting your seeds locally and venturing out and seeing how many of your seeds you can sow in other boros. It's a citywide turf war to #OvergrowTheCommons!
