Abstract
Wild plants have always been an important food source for people, not only in the distant past but also during more recent times of war.
A wealth of information linked to human traditions has been gained on these plants which is worth preserving.
As now these experiences are a prerogative primarily of the elderly in rural areas.
A Phytoalimurgic Garden (PG) is a place where edible wild plants are grown as if in their natural environment and is planned to produce food all year round.
To create a PG now, as food emergency no longer exists in Europe, means to exploit and spread these plants, promoting popular customs, old flavours and uses.
The PG is intended for agro-tourism and teaching purposes, to spread ethno-botanical knowledge and preserve biodiversity.
This paper describes how a PG in northern Italy was planned and is still managed.
It could be an example for other experiences.
Some of the species have been analyzed for their nutritional value.
