Sammendrag

Urban farming is about food production, either in the urban areas or made by the urban citizens in or near urban areas. However, purposes and effects include so much more than only products. The social and environmental effects are many and of great importance to the future urban citizens, as well as for the development of our future sustainable cities and new urban food systems. This guide intends to give input to how urban farming in Norway can be implemented in simple ways. Although in many Norwegian cities this is already realized beyond the scope of this guide, hopefully the guide can give useful input and inspiration to the many municipalities that still are in the start-up in this area. The guide gives the most important topics that need to be addressed before urban farming can be realized in the municipalities. Municipalities need to find areas that can be used, for allotment gardening or for planting the food plants that can be freely harvested by citizens. The allotment growers need a minimum of infrastructure and guidelines on what and how to grow the plants, so that the quality of the edible products and the environment are well taken care for. And interested citizens need permission to use the suitable area for their activities. With good planning and management, urban farming can give a long range of ecosystem services to the citizen, society, and the urban nature.
