Italy

[Pescara]
Italy ranks first in Europe both in the number of organic farms and organic
cultivated land area. It was the perfect place to celebrate Organic Sunday.
On October 5, Golden Year 5 (2008), a hundred cities throughout Italy
hosted the ninth annual “Biodomenica” or Organic Sunday. Fellow
initiates partook in the Pescara festivities and offered a new perspective
on the benefits of a vegetarian diet. They distributed Alternative Living
and SOS Global Warming flyers, served delicious vegan treats, handed out
recipes and arranged a vegetarian cooking class for interested people.
Their message reached large numbers of people who had been drawn out of
their homes to the organic food fair by the beautiful, sunny weather.
