This Saturday, September 28, 2024, from 11:00 AM to 7:00 PM, the Garden of Piazza Hortis will come alive as gardening enthusiasts from all walks of life gather for a unique celebration of horticulture. The event, organized by Bioest, promises a day of discovery and exchange in the heart of Trieste, fostering a sense of community among amateur gardeners, nature lovers, and families.
The open-air event, designed for both experienced gardeners and beginners alike, is an opportunity to explore the art of gardening and share experiences in an informal setting. Whether you are a veteran green thumb or a budding enthusiast, there will be something for everyone.
The day’s activities include a range of interactive programs, such as flower-crossing, where participants can swap plants and flowers, and seed-swapping, a chance to exchange rare or beloved seeds with fellow gardeners. Seed libraries will offer free access to a variety of seeds, encouraging biodiversity in home gardens. Visitors can also attend readings and musical workshops, including a special segment on the theme of water, titled “The Harmony of Water and Nature: Past, Present, and Future,” curated by CIF. In addition, children and adults alike can partake in games and hands-on activities, designed to make learning about nature fun and engaging.
The event offers a welcoming, relaxed atmosphere that encourages dialogue and knowledge-sharing among gardening aficionados of all ages. For many, it is as much about meeting like-minded individuals as it is about learning new gardening techniques or discovering unique plants. The inclusive nature of the event makes it accessible to anyone with a love for the outdoors, from young children to seasoned gardeners.
Entry is free, and the entire event is set to unfold against the backdrop of one of Trieste’s most charming public spaces.
