Increased self-sufficiency
Green inspiration meets digital solution. Here is the project that aims to lower the cultivation threshold!
About the project
Höglidens greenery wants to help more households grow more food themselves – in a simple, sustainable, and smart way. Through an inspiring demonstration garden, a completely new digital tool, and personal advice directly on-site in people's gardens, the project aims to lower the barriers to getting started and succeeding.
The goal is for more people to discover the potential in their own green spaces and increase their self-sufficiency.
From the application
”With the right knowledge and practical support, small areas can yield large harvests – and strengthen local food supply”
