Though I wonder where the line is: obviously uprooting a whole plant is wrong, but is there a point in the size of a plant where one can take a cutting (or seed pod when/if it bolts into seed) to root/seed yourself?
- nomel 3y agoRemoving any amount of living tissue from someone else's plant, without their permission, is wrong. It's ridiculous to think it's ok. Buy your own, and cut it up.
- Scoundreller 3y agoAs another wrinkle, it's public property. I may or may not have eaten mulberries from a tree that sits on a public property boulevard...
- seszett 3y agoI'm happy when people take seeds or fruit from my sidewalk garden, it means they like it.
- nomel 3y agoIn many places, it’s legal to take fruit. No cutting required. Seeds don’t require cutting, and can usually be picked up off the ground.
- JoeAltmaier 3y agoNot true! Most urban environments, anything from the public path is fair game. And for good reason. The sun, air, rain aren't personal property. And the right-of-way is for everybody. And in the US in national parks, picking fruit for daily personal consumption is also allowed. No hoovering up the entire raspberry patch to make jam at home! Just during your visit.
