The extraordinary agricultural resource of Parco Agricolo Sud Milano This guide was conceived to draw the Reader’s attention to a resource of the utmost importance for the Milan Metropolitan Area: farming in the Parco Agricolo Sud Milano.

Parco Agricolo Sud Milano is a park that forms a metropolitan green belt with an approximate surface area of 47,000 hectares, little more than 35,000 of which are used for agricultural purposes. Despite the high level of urbanisation, the considerable presence of infrastructures, almost 75% of the Park’s territory is used for farming, which is, therefore, the main activity of the territorial and environmental protection system. The main goal of Parco Agricolo Sud Milano is, therefore, to preserve agricultural land as evidence of a fertile and productive plain at the service of both residents and the metropolis.

This guide, which has reached the fourth edition, invites the Reader to explore the agricultural land that stretches over the peri-urban strip situated to the south of the Lombardy region’s capital city, but especially to make the most of and spread information about its productive system, along with the many activities proposed by the farms, which operate there.

Agriculture developed by farms in the Park has a dual importance. Indeed, on the one hand it performs its primary function with the production of foodstuffs and, on the other hand, it significantly contributes to the production of intangible assets, which are configured as precious services for citizens of the metropolis, which is embraced by the Park.

This combination of primary production and services meets the needs of a new agricultural model defined as multifunctional. This guide adopts such a perspective to describe and make the most of services and activities conceived and developed by the Park’s multifunctional farms in the course of time, describing how this practice has been implemented for several years.

Reading the information sheets of farms present in the Park contributes to underscore the ability shown by farmers to meet the local demand with an increasingly wide-ranging and diversified offer. Hence, it is no easy feat to list the activities, initiatives and services provided by multifunctional agriculPARCO AGRICOLO SUD MILANO — 7

ture. Particularly, it is not a “finite” process, as it is based on the continuous intention, expressed by the companies, to develop ever new horizons and perspectives.

The information sheets in this guide reveal that rural hospitality can be found barely a few kilometres from Milan, in warm and refined settings, which are harmonious with natural open spaces. The catering services underscore the value of typical local products, offering a cuisine that stands apart for ancient Lombard flavours, combined with ongoing gastronomic experimentation. Raw material transformation techniques produce refined cheeses, cured meats, bread, honey, jams and much more besides.

Cultural and recreational services are diversified, where the land tells the story of these places through charming renovated farmhouses disseminated in the typical landscape of the Lombard plain. The visitor can explore many paths and itineraries, discovering refined settings charged with nature and landscape interest. Visitors can explore the remains of the Po valley’s ancient forest. Leaving behind the chaos of the city, they can either walk or cycle along irrigation ditches or near springs, or even admire the perfectly cultivated seamless stretch of agricultural fields, the thick hydrographic network, the hedges and alley cropping, and the numberless country roads. All this makes up the Parco Agricolo Sud Milano today.

This landscape is the outcome of the slow and century-long work of man, the result of continuous transformations, which are indissolubly bound to the history of agricultural production of one of Europe’s most fertile areas.

Moreover, many farms presented in the guide are Educational Farms, which offer educational services with dedicated educational paths. They welcome children, families and schools with projects centred on the themes of the Park, on sustainable agricultural practices and on the transformation of raw materials. The relations established over the years between the farms, teachers and families, and the active involvement of children through workshops and practical experience have created opportunities for meetings and enrichment, genuine local centres of environmental and nutritional education.

In the course of the past decade, many companies have developed and implemented sales of their produce, establish8 — PARCO AGRICOLO SUD MILANO

ing direct and often ongoing relations with the consumer.

The custom of purchasing on the farm has bridged the gap between city and country, with the doubtless advantage of increasing the knowledge residents have of the area and of the farms situated in the Park. This also enhances appreciation of the quality of farm-to-table products, with positive repercussions on the environment by shortening the production chain.

Finally, multifunctional agriculture is also environmental sustainability. The path of the Marchio di Qualità Ambientale [Environmental Quality Brand] issued by the Park, in the three levels of gold, silver and bronze, identifies the farms committed to implement sustainable environmental actions not only in terms of production but also of social, cultural and recreational services issued and offered to metropolitan residents.

Moreover, it must be said that various farms are also Punti Parco [Park Points]. The main purpose of Punti Parco is to bring the Park closer to the residents by becoming a widespread and direct communication channel. Farms hosting Punti Parco develop, in partnership with the Parco Agricolo Sud Milano, initiatives and events, while also distributing information to the public about the area’s cultural, historical, agricultural, environmental and nutritional treasures. This continuous communication and dissemination process offers the Reader the opportunity to learn about the various initiatives even directly on site.

With its farms, Parco Agricolo Sud Milano plays a leading role in promoting services for rural tourism, which can be accessed all year round. Direct relations with its agricultural entities propose and implement a vision of modernity combined with tradition.

Hence, we hope this guide gives everybody the chance to discover and explore the Park and its amazing wealth.

How to use this guide

The guide is organised in three main sections: — the first provides alphabetical and geographical indexes of the farms; — the second presents theme indexes for a transversal interpretation of production categories and activities; — the third provides the information sheets of 80 farms based in the Park that offer multifunctional services.

Geographical areas: west, south, east.

The Park is divided into three geographical areas, each of which has been associated with a colour: west, south and east. Besides the classical alphabetical index, the Reader may, thus, consult a geographical index designed to easily locate farms in the area.

Every farm that has a Punto Parco is indicated with the logo on the farm’s information sheet, and a yellow dot on the map.

Punti Parco are info points, which promote initiatives and activities organised by Parco Agricolo Sud Milano.

THE PARK EXPERIENCE The wealth of experiences proposed is presented by theme indexes conceived to encourage the Reader to explore the Park starting from his/her own interests and needs. Every index includes the main categories of the offer and the corresponding farms. The Reader can explore the details of production and activities, which integrate the overall offer, but are not included in the indexes.

12 — PARCO AGRICOLO SUD MILANO

Calendar of farm produce: to know the variety of the Park’s vegetable and fruit cultivation, organised by seasonal produce.

Products: to explore the offer of agricultural produce, either fresh or transformed, and to identify the farms that produce and sell them.

Catering services: to discover where, how and when to taste the Park’s produce.

Hospitality: to stay on farms.

Educational activities: to learn about farming culture, techniques and trades, and become aware of sustainability.

Cascina Zucca

Azienda Agricola Cascina Zucca was established in Corbetta in May 2017.

The farm counts ca. 40 Chamois goats, whose milk is manually converted into fresh and semi-aged cheese directly in the farm’s dairy. A small Farm Shop has also been opened, where visitors can purchase dairy products, besides honey produced from the farm’s hives. Some spaces have been fitted out as educational workshops for schools, for kindergarten children or merely for families who wish to learn about the farmhouse and the world of agriculture.
