A project by the architecture studio studioUAP that has been mapping and supporting Rome's shared vegetable gardens since 2010. The online platform now brings together more than a hundred and fifty citizen urban agriculture initiatives and has provided technical support and visibility for those managing plots or public land on loan. It is not a single place but a network of spaces spread across the whole city.
