Orti urbani in Italia oggi: una molteplicità tipologica per supplire a carenze strutturali

We consider the theme of urban gardens as a privileged observation of socioeconomic and environmental changes in a city. These can be highlighted inside urban areas, in historical city centres or even in suburban places. During the nineteenth-century new allotments where an opportunity for workers of the industry as a food integration but also to improve health and relational aspects. The situation has not changed, and we can see how societies satisfy these needs: the more complex, nowadays a city becomes, in its forms, functions and ways of interacting, the greater the utility of a multiform and always changing horticultural activity
