The Giardino di Pojega - Villa Rizzardi returns as a place of care, connection, and shared experience.
On May 23 and 24, the Giardino di Pojega will host the second edition of the Therapeutic Garden Days, an event dedicated to the theme of the Healing Garden.
Following the success of last year's edition, the initiative returns with an even richer program, developed together with IRCCS Sacro Cuore Don Calabria, under the patronage of the Comune di Negrar di Valpolicella and with the involvement of local associations and professionals.
The 2026 edition is dedicated to the theme of aphasia, a condition that affects the ability to communicate and invites a broader reflection on the value of relationships, expression, and alternative forms of language.
Within the Giardino di Pojega, among tree-lined paths and scenic perspectives, visitors will experience a journey of talks, workshops, and immersive activities where nature, art, and beauty become tools for healing.
A project that creates value
The Therapeutic Garden Days were created with the aim of fostering dialogue between nature, care, and community.
Part of the proceeds from the two-day event will be donated to the Associazione Italiana Afasici (AITA) in support of activities dedicated to people living with aphasia and their families.
A meaningful way to transform an experience of beauty into an act of support, participation, and closeness.
Visiting the Garden during the event
During both days, the Giardino di Pojega will remain open from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM and may also be visited independently.
Visitors may purchase:
Workshop places are limited, and advance booking is strongly recommended.
