Local Food Nodes
Sweden
Albin Ponnert is a trained filmmaker and editor working as media consultant and project manager. He is a spare-time farmer and the founder of Local Food Nodes. He has spare-head competence in citizen participation, and was prior to Local Food Nodes the initiator and project manager of Sweden’s largest analogue Instagram campaign, #enjoysweden.
Local Food Nodes is an open digital platform and organization tool that enables sales from local food producers to end-consumers, without middleman, and without income-loss. With Local Food Nodes, Albin and his team aim to enable local autonomous organization around local food, anywhere, and to get people re-connected with the food they eat and the people that produce it.
The project is the result of local tests made in a Röstånga village in Skåne in 2016, were locals could pick up pre-order locally produced food, directly from the producers.
