In this episode I’m talking with Sofia Jessen who is working as Countryside developer and head of culture at Grästorps Council in Sweden.
She was one of the initiative takers who brought the Finnish concept Reko- Ring to Sweden in 2016.
A movement of buying local grown food directly from your closest farmer through Facebook, spread rapidly in Sweden and is now available in most parts of the country.
One of the biggest challenges we are facing is the result of transportation and mass production of food viands. Reko-Ring might not be a fully new concept in itself, but it has definitely come as a result of people caring and wanting to buy food locally again in order to support a more sustainable way of buying your groceries.
