Plant Edibles in Parks
It occurred to me recently that we waste an awful lot of space on growing useless plants in our parks. Why plant evergreens when we could plant apples? Why ground cover where mints or herbs could grow?
No, since that land will be used for growing things (an admirable pursuit), it should be used to grow useful things. In this way the poor would be given an additional resource to fall back on, and the well-off would be able to supplement their cookery.
