It is about one hectare wide, the tree lined roads and the mediterranean vegetation make it a wonderful place close to beautiful marine and mountain reserves. The area can be a perfect location for events as it is flat with no architectural barriers.Its name Fiori di campo is taken from one of Peppino Impastato s poems.With the help of very many volunteers, Libera-Mente has made the place comfortable and welcoming.
