Sweden’s forests are a vital source of food and cultural heritage, supported by the Right to Public Access, or “Allemansrätten.” From berries and mushrooms to game and fish, foraging and hunting connect people to nature. Forest restoration practices like Continuous Cover Forestry promote sustainable food production, benefiting both local communities and biodiversity.
