It really is just a "last resort" idea that could "help" after a total collapse. Allotments and gardens will be stripped by anyone and everyone who are trying to feed their families, but how many of the sheeple living in your street would think about picking wild plants from roadside verges; farmers fields; or even your own hedges etc?
As BP says, it is guerrilla gardening "BUT" not in the conventional sense as to most people these are weeds and not a food source and so will remain far better hidden than any conventional veggies would and these should keep sprouting up year after year.
Dandelions and Burdock are also both very useful food sources, and certainly dandelions stay around all year round, so you are not restricted to 'late summer' etc. Also you could be planting "winter" cress and other wild plants (weeds) that would provide a supplementary food source at different times of the year.
Have a look at the PDF document on the following thread, its given me some ideas:

But just think if you spread 500 dandelion or burdock seeds this year in a couple of hedgerows, how many plants would there be in 2, 3 or even 5 years time?
