The Left Party has submitted a motion to the City Council where they write that they want edible plants to be planted in parks around Jönköping.

Above all, berry bushes and fruit trees but also vegetable gardens.

- We want to create edible environments for the people of Jönköping.

We believe that it will increase the connection to where the food comes from.

Food is a natural resource and not just something that is on the store shelf, says left-wing party member Julia Löf.

The idea is that berry bushes and fruit trees will be planted in existing parks.

- We want to make better use of the space that already exists, she says.

Is there a risk that it will be abused?

- There is always a risk, but we believe that this is something you can learn from, to share the common resources in a good way.

We would like to try before we judge it, says Julia Löf.

What will it cost?

- In the first stage, we do not think it will cost anything, but we can do this when we renew the parks, she says.
