Ecologist Benedicte Brun, a graduate of the Norwegian Biotechnology University, has, through her involvement in the grassroots movement Global Transition Network, initiated a series of experiments for the development of food forests in the West Norwegian context, including in this small forest in Kronstad. Through her Food Forest projects, Benedicte creates living seedbanks, while at the same time highlighting the issues that arise when food is to be grown in urban contexts characterized by industrial pollution.
