Grow food anywhere you can
I have been wondering why there isn't a mandate that every tree on public land must be food-producing. In a day I must pass hundreds if not thousands of non-edible trees and shrubs just lining pavements, dotted about on business parks, on little bits of nowhere-ville grassland.
If they can grow so readily, why couldn't food producing plants grow like that, in their millions all over the country?
