ROD (Radykalne Ogrodki Dzialkowe) - engl. Radical Allotment Gardens - is
a project in warsaw which embraces Reclaim the Fields movement. at march
2015 we've occupied a territory of partly abandoned allotment gardens at
the southwest of warsaw and started to restore this land. We started to
support people who stayed there despite the fact that the developer was
spreading the panic by frightening them and trying to get them out. As
well, we want to save the territory of the allotment gardens and the
green area around it from privatization and organize the social gardens
and other kinds of activity which will include the local citizens and
people from other places who want to join us.
What we want is spread the idea of occupying the lands and giving them
back to people. we use renewable sources of energy and try to educate
people about ecological ways of existence which use DIY and recycling
activities. We as well are getting new knowledge about managing gardens,
growing plants, building stoves and organizing social spaces, making
tools and so on. We are a collective which resists hierarchic way of
social organization, sexism, racism and other ways of social and
economical discrimination.
