More and more people want to grow their own food – the organizer of the garden fair in Umeå: “The economic situation is noticeable”

During the weekend, the annual garden fair takes place in Umeå. Dahlias are usually popular, but this year crops are also taking their place among the growing trends – especially vegetables. The organizer believes it is because it is a time of crisis.

– Especially among younger people – they want to grow what they eat, says Kristin Olsson, project manager at Nolia.
