Among today’s practices aimed at achieving or restoring forms of urbanization respectful for the socio-environmental metabolism of territories, new forms of sustainable agriculture are very impor-tant. Such practices do not concern only ‘rural’ contexts in the ‘South’ of the world, but are implied in various local experiences of territorial ‘care’, ‘economies of proximity’, enhancement of local peculiarities, development of periurban farming areas with high-quality production etc.. In Italy, this is particularly relevant in the Pianura Padana context, the largest and most productive agricultural area of the country, where the housing boom has created a sort of ‘continuous city’ between Turin and Venice in which the soil consumption is twice the national average. This study aims at examining one of such experiences, concerning the Cooperativa Farine Tipiche del Lago di Garda and the Airone Park, both located in the area of Bedizzole (Brescia). Starting from the analysis of a local campaign in defense of the river Chiese ecosystem, we try to highlight how practices of local resistance to unsustainable conditions of territories (in physical as well as in socio-cultural terms) can lead to the development of alternative forms of relationships with them.
