A street tree pit is transformed into an urban roadside garden in Zürich, Switzerland. Cities are socio‐ecological systems that require new ways of thinking and engagement to successfully conserve biodiversity. Please see Vega et al's article ‘Discovering the wild side of urban plants through public engagement’ in this issue, that details the citizen science project Where Seeds Fall . This project was developed using an “ ecology with ” cities approach and sought to conduct research with the humans living in the ecosystem, while learning from and helping inform their values.
