Completed projects
Food safari
Smaka på Värmdö is an economic association consisting of food producers and food artisans in Värmdö. Together with the LRF local department in Värmdö, they have arranged a food safari on Värmdö in the micro project. During the food safari, local food producers kept their farm shops open and welcomed visitors. The idea behind the event was to draw attention to locally produced food, the need for self-sufficiency and to enable personal meetings between producer and consumer.

Granliden live event autumn 2024
Södra Ljusterö Building Association manages the Granliden people's park, where activity has decreased for many years. The association has recently started to renovate the park. In the micro-project, they held an event for members at Granliden with an invited artist. The aim was to offer a fun event to the islanders outside the tourist season and to draw attention to the people's park as a place where the association broadens the cultural offer on the island. The event succeeded in attracting more people to become members of the association, which will eventually enable more activities and events to be held at Granliden.
