The disaster presents an opportunity for Birnam Wood, an unregulated guerrilla gardening collective that plants crops where no one will notice. For years, the group has struggled to break even. To occupy the farm at Thorndike would mean a shot at solvency. But American billionaire Robert Lemoine also has an interest in the place. Although they're poles apart politically, it seems Lemoine and the group might have enemies in common. But can Birnam trust him? And, as their ideals are tested, can they trust one another? ER -
