ARMO1191 has existed since 2011 in Piancavallo ( read our story), Candaglia in Castaldia, ex-casera Barzan area, at approximately 1191 m above sea level

With this photography contest we would like to leave a testimony for the future of this mountain so dear to us, which we have chosen as a place of work to cultivate a plant like Arnica montana, very precious for its medicinal properties, endemic in these areas, but at risk of extinction throughout the European Alpine arc ( find out why it is at risk).

Cultivating Arnica montana means saving the still existing wild plants and experimenting in this area with an agricultural activity never realized before.
