Lentamente Societá Cooperativa Agricola reclaimed and rehabilitated abandoned land, and established an urban social farm in Benevento. Lentamente and its partners such as Coop La Solidarietà use social farming as an innovative tool to respond to the socio-economic challenges faced by the Benevento community. The social farming project ensures social inclusion of disadvantaged communities, and provides them with education and employment benefits.
