Social Garden

The Social Garden is an initiative that arises from the need to strengthen contact between migrants seeking asylum and the land that gives them hospitality. A strengthening that passes through the most authentic activity of relationship with the earth: agriculture and the cultivation of edible plants.

The project starts from the consideration that migrants come to look for a country where not only food, but legality is the basis of social peace and sharing. To add to this is also the passion that many of the children hosted show for agriculture: most of them claim to have been farmers or to have worked in the cultivated fields.

Tahomà offers a plot of land located in Bibbiena, where everyone can come to plant, cultivate native or exotic specialties and above all share experiences and skills. The garden is easily accessible, so everyone is given the opportunity to go there at any time, and is managed by a small number of managers, identified precisely thanks to their inclination and passion for looking after the land.

But what is grown in the social garden? various species of tomatoes, aubergines, peppers, lettuce, courgettes, potatoes, karkadé, peanuts and aromatic herbs.
