Geo - The voices of the mountain

In our imagination, Versilia is a worldly place, for crowded and agitated summer holidays with nightlife. But turning inland, less famous than the beaches, you can hear the many voices of the mountain that dominates the valley: from that of Cristina, who has formed a group of olive growers to protect the Quercetano olive tree, a native species, to that of Amapola, which grows Schiaccioni beans on the slopes of the Apuan Alps.

From those of Simone and Francesco, who try to revitalize an economy around chestnuts that also protects the territory, to that of Meliton, a Peruvian sculptor who has rediscovered the landscapes and silences of the Andes here.

Finally, there is Sirio, the carpenter who has worked a lifetime with chestnut wood and who now plants dozens of them in a wood not far from his workshop.

The mountain speaks. You just need to know how to listen to it.
