Instead of state parks why not just farmland. Divide it between all the farming sectors and let the people run it. Raise animals for meat, veggies, wheat, orchards, vines etc. Or give the land back to the people and let us decide what we want to do with it. I personally think every county should only plant edible plants and trees. If the county is paying for landscaping it should be edible plants, fruit and nut trees with no pesticides. Also the state highways should be filled with butterfly and bee plants if center area is available. Along every state highway should be fruit and nut trees. Maybe even fruit vines. All with zero pesticides. The people who want gardens, orchards and vineyards already have them. Those that want and can have them. There should be better education about growing up for the city folks. Rooftop gardens in the city should be a thing and promoted by the building owners. Also, think about all the public spaces in the cities. Edible plants, produce bearing trees, spring summer fall and winter blooming plants for bees with zero pesticides.

How about stop paying farmers not to farm?

And the farmland should be owned by American farmers, not Bill Gates, not China, not corporations.

I already grow edibles on my tiny property but struggle with deer, critters, contaminations in the ground water, constant chemtrail spraying and weather manipulation. All of this needs to be addressed.
Fruits requires full sun. Neighbors should not be allowed to plant evergreens along the property line and allow them to grow so tall that their neighbors don’t have enough sun to grow fruits.
