Every community should have a park where people can collect "nature's harvest'. Some supervision would be required. In temperate climates parks could provide apples, pears, plums, damsons, raspberries, blackberries, hazelnuts, sweet chestnuts, mushrooms and fresh herbs. Wild food contains a wider range of nutrients than factory-farmed food, so that people do not have to spend so much money on vitamin and mineral tablets.
