ppl would eat crab apples from trees. In retrospect, a lot of urban soil is excessively high in lead. But it’s maybe possible to just plant some apple trees and they’ll eventually provide some food security.

Also would make those empty lots into more park like structures

    Why crab apples? I have a crab apple tree and make jelly every year, but I can’t give the stuff away. Lots of tannins.
