Permaculture can be a guiding
source in having your guerilla garden “seed”, rather than fail, through creativity, observation and resource management. 
Helping the entire guerrilla gardening community at large.
With limited resources stretching these resources is a valuable tool.
As Guerilla Gardeners we will not have our own yard and therefore it is best to work in zones taken from Permaculture

Guerrilla gardeners often face problemswith pests, soil conditions, water, and sunlight.
Permaculture lends itself to these problems by answering questions that may arise.

== Note on contributing to the site ==

As is evident, this wiki is still in its very early stages and needs the help of Berlin gardeners (yes, you!) to develop to its full potential. Feel free to create a user account and add away. German and English are both acceptable for the moment, until we have the resources to separate the site into two separate language versions. We are looking into adding a more intuitive WYSIWYG editor, as well as standardise the templates of some pages that may be repetitive (e.g., types of plant).

In the mean time, please info-dump as neatly and as simply as you can, and the admins will regulate the formatting. If you have a suggestion regarding the structure of the site or certain page templates, please contact the wiki admins or leave a note in the Discussion (tab above left).

See the instructions below. Don't be shy to launch new pages, and don't get upset if someone changes/removes what you wrote; that's how wikis work. If you have a problem with a change, send a message to ask the reason for the change and change it back if you find the answer unsatisfactory. Above all, be considerate and civil.
