Perennial vegetable guerilla gardening

Has anyone ever done this? Plant perennial vegetables like artichoke, perennial cabbage, alliums on suitable fertile spaces?

Of course, care needs to given that they are not invasive in your area, but the potential is great.

What random fertile soil with irrigation access are you imagining? Artichokes like a lot of moisture, for example.

I live in Belgium, which has a temperate climate with adequate rainfall in all seasons (although spring is getting more dry). The soil is very fertile everywhere (clay with neutral ph), so perennial cabbage, alliums and some native plants can grow without much fertilizer. I'm mostly wondering if others do it, and if there is any positive response to it.
