On Friday the 28th of April 2023 we organized a pruning workshop for interested local farmers in the context of our project “Humus per la Biosfera”. The workshop was held on one of Giacche Verdi Bronte’s olive fields under the guidance of Dott. Nunzio Grigoli, former member of the Sicilian Forestry Department and organic farmer. In total circa 20 people participated.

In April we started the second round of outdoor lessons in the schools of the project region around Mount Etna. The children gain practical experience on how to set up a compost and learn about the importance of biodiversity and soil organisms.
