Community gardening by involving the occupation of already-produced urban space for new uses as well as the production of new spaces, is often understood as an act of spatial autogestion and a means of claiming the right to the city. It can contribute to spatial autogestion by reversing the separation and segregation of city's inhabitants and bringing them together in common spaces. The concept of the commons/commoning as part of broader social struggles against spatial enclosure in the city is of key importance in community, and even more in guerilla, gardening. As Chatterton (2010, p. 626) points out the common is “made real through the practice of communing” which reflects dynamic spatial practices and has the potential to form alternative politics when common “wealth” that provides direct input into social and physical well-being, is faced with “enclosure” in the form of the destruction and privatization of public spaces, environments and resources. The common, then, becomes a political byword for resistance against contemporary capital encroachment and expansion. Grassroots community gardening initiatives by opposing the social, spatial and environmental injustices of the neoliberal restructuring of cities, have the potential not only to influence the production of (local) places but also to reshape the broader institutional and territorial frameworks through which the post-crisis production of urban space is being managed at every spatial scale reconfiguring the social geography of cities in post-crisis Europe.
