Noi Ortadini (citizen gardeners): a Community Garden to collectively reconnect with nature in Matera
During lockdown, a biology student who lived on the outskirts of Matera (Italy) started growing vegetables and trees on an abandoned patch of land next to his home. Friends and neighbours joined him to learn about agriculture, socialize and build a compost bin and a gazebo. “Noi Ortadini” (the citizen gardeners) is now an official community garden, offering events and workshops such as gardening, ecosystem restoration, outdoor education for children and debates on climate change and sustainable lifestyles.
