The Greener Guide to Seeing Stockholm More Sustainably

Heritage grain crops are grown less commonly nowadays due to the excessive refining processes needed for mass production, which is a tragedy for biodiversity. This cute bakery from prolific chefs Mathias Dahlgren and Martin Berg, puts rare grains front and centre, reimagining them into a delicious selection of unusual breads and sweet treats, including brioche loaves and cinnamon buns. Its handful of tables, old-fashioned bakery counter and chequered floor make this a lovely spot for fika – the Swedish cultural concept roughly surmised as “catching up over a coffee and something sweet’. Don’t mind if we do.

This truly bucolic garden has been educating locals about organic and biodynamic growing since 1982. Today, it’s a patchwork of flower fields where the public can pick their own bouquets, vegetable plots and twisted apple trees, some of which have been shading this spot since the 19th century. Enjoy vegetarian food from the cafe in one of the greenhouses and don’t forget to take a loaf of bread home with you – it’s baked on site in a traditional brick oven.
