Founded in the mid-1990s on the basis of a project with environmental, educational and productive aims, this green lung has represented, and still represents today, a model of planning in the field of forestry.
Bosco is set within an agricultural estate covering around 30,000 square metres. It shelters beehives and, during the warmer months, thousands of bees carry out their essential pollination work, gather nectar and honeydew and, of course, produce honey.
Born thanks to the passion and vision of founder Gianfranco Marchetti, agronomist, herbalist and teacher, Alessandro Marchetti, musician, writer and beekeeper, and Elena Marchetti, wellness practitioner, Bosco delle Viole is an educational farm listed in the Veneto Region register, where it is possible to take part in botany and beekeeping workshops and join guided tours, suitable for people of all ages, to discover and learn about the fine agroecosystem that characterises the area.
The Bosco is also a place to reconnect with nature and, thanks to meditation and relaxation activities, can offer regenerating and wellbeing experiences.
Please note that Bosco delle Viole is a private place and can only be accessed on certain days, which are indicated on the Facebook page (Bosco delle Viole di Mansuè – TV) and Instagram (@bosco_delle_viole). It is also possible to book guided tours for groups; please refer to the website (www.boscodelleviole.it) for a description of the activities and educational trails.
