Read all about our activities in 2019!

Last year was rich in activities for EcoVisio. We worked hard to organize interesting events, support local initiatives and create a space for shared learning and creativity. We couldn't have done it all without your support and enthusiasm, without your interesting initiatives of growing organic fruits and vegetables, producing organic food, looking for ways to solve environmental and social problems, and without your passion for sharing experience and knowledge. We thank you all and invite you to read about our achievements in the EcoVisio 2019 report
