We've had good experiences transplanting them during the early part of the growing season, maybe someone nearby would let you take a clump or three to get you started. They can spread pretty prolifically from a start like that. I haven't noticed them spreading seed very far, but their roots will spread them out readily.

I will try this spring to transplant some. There are tons along the weedy sections that people don't care about. I will try to get some in my yard. I know the seeds of violets don't spread that far so transplants is a good option.
