Activities in the garden for adults: The care of the summer garden
The garden in summer is at the peak of its development and also gives the maximum harvest. Peas and spinach leave room for more Mediterranean crops with vegetables and fruits that love the heat. In the Garden of the Castle of Miradolo we will talk about how to deal with the small problems that summer production species can have in this period. For example, how to properly top tomatoes or dahlias for more abundant harvests and flowers. Space to associations to limit pests with the use of flowering plants such as lavenders and marigolds. And where these are not enough we will offer some indications on the remedies to be applied in case of presence of parasites that can infest and damage our productions at zero kilometers.
The activity is carried out in collaboration with Cooperativa Arnica. On the occasion of Appointment in the garden of APGI - Association parks and gardens of Italy

The residence has eighteenth-century origins and belonged to the Massel di Caresana and Cacherano di Bricherasio families until 1950\. Since 2008 it has been home to the Cosso Foundation, which has taken care of its recovery and transformed it into a cultural hub.

The park houses centuries-old specimens of Ginkgo Biloba, sequoia, tassodio, lyrodendro and a giant bamboo forest. Numerous waterways make it an ideal habitat for various animal species and a collection of hydrangeas. In 2018 five trees were recognized as of monumental interest and
