The Municipality of Concordia, through the Secretariat of Productive Development and the Undersecretariat of Development and Entrepreneurship, has successfully concluded the stage corresponding to the 2025 autumn-winter campaign of the family and community garden program with an agroecological approach.
On this occasion, seasonal horticultural seedlings were delivered in the Camba Paso neighborhood, at the “Pansita Llena” soup kitchen, benefiting 27 families who have already begun to develop their family gardens. With this achievement, the program has reached residents of more than 70 neighborhoods in the city, reaching more than 1,700 families who received seedlings and specialized technical advice.
For his part, Ariel Gorostegui, Director of Cooperativism and Associativism, remarked: “The program has achieved significant reach throughout the city, consolidating itself as a public policy with real impact. This demonstrates the committed work of the technical teams and the active participation of the residents.”
Miguel Parra, Head of the Social Economy Department, highlighted: “The completion of this stage fills us with satisfaction. We have reached the goals we set for ourselves, and the results show the community's commitment and interest in recovering knowledge linked to the land and self-cultivation. This not only improves the families' nutrition but also strengthens community ties.”
Meanwhile, engineer Gabriel Zubizarreta, technical manager of the program, added: “The objectives set for this campaign were met, and shortly, we will begin the Spring-Summer campaign stage, with the goal of reaching more neighborhoods and adding new families to the program.”
The initiative promotes the production of healthy food, strengthens the domestic economy, and encourages the participation of residents in sustainable and solidarity-based practices, consolidating itself as a public policy.
For more information, interested persons may approach the Directorate of Cooperativism and Associativism, located on the 1st floor of the Civic Center of Concordia (Mitre and Pellegrini), from Monday to Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.
