Updates from Mezzaluna della Biodiversità | October 2024

In the province of Vicenza, in the Berici Hills, more precisely in Arcugnano, we are implementing an agro-forestry project, i.e. a synergy of trees and shrubs with plants dedicated to agricultural production. The aim is to create a system in which food production is not at the expense of nature, far from it; on the contrary, we aim to increase biodiversity, protect the soil, respect the land and improve the landscape.

The combination of plant species also has a positive impact on insects, pollinators and fauna, such as small birds, which will find shelter in the trees and sources of food. Trees and plants that are not treated with synthetic substances attract more insects, which in turn attract birds and other predators, helping to maintain the natural balance of habitats.

In this short video we tell you about the first WOWnature event, during which people and companies that are supporting the project came to plant the new trees they have adopted.
