DIVERSITY

The richness and vitality of a living system depend on its complexity. Biodiversity represents the genetic heritage of the entire terrestrial ecosystem – generated by the natural evolutionary adaptation capacities developed over the centuries – which needs to be protected and safeguarded. Because a biodiverse and plural world is a richer, more alive and healthier world.

BIODIVERSITY
more benefits for all

There’s a tight link between biodiversityand good health. The scientific community has recently found out a connection between the decrease of biodiversity and the increase of inflammatory-based diseases: our immune system is weaker and our microbioma is suffering.
If we want to preserve this richness (and our health) we need to defend and valorise our local produceand our local farmers, by investing in research of ancient varieties.
