Orti Insieme Urban Vegetable Gardens At Il Parteciprato In Milan

Flower beds, benches and a wooden pergola are pictured in a seating area at Il Parteciprato, an urban shared garden, on April 4, 2026 in Milan, Italy. A historic building is visible in the background beyond the garden's perimeter fence. Il Parteciprato occupies a formerly disused municipal plot at the corner of Via Faravelli and Via Gattamelata in the Municipio 5 district, and is managed by the nonprofit association Parteciprato APS, combining vegetable beds, ornamental plantings and communal furniture built by volunteers.
